Soundmap: People and Place is a collection of sound walks and sound maps co-created with five communities in North Aberdeenshire - New Byth, Banff, Ladysbridge, Sandhaven and Rosehearty. Following a number of workshops, people in these communities made sound recordings which were then used in both the sound maps and sound walks for each community.

The project was launched in the summer of 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, at a time when many people were looking for activities to undertake both indoors and outdoors.
