Started in 2010, the Colourful Heritage is the first charitable initiative in #Scotland aiming to preserve and celebrate the contributions of the early #SouthAsian and #Muslim communities and migrants to Scotland.
It has created the largest online repository of oral stories, established a dedicated archive and launched a unique exhibition showcasing the communities journey. Explore these amazing resources and be inspired by the positive contributions this community have made to Scotland having turned up with just a few pennies in their pocket and starting their working life as pedlars.
