WILTON Lodge Park in Hawick is inviting young Borderers to take part in a film about the park.

Run by local artist and film-maker Dawn Berry, the challenge will be to capture a year in the life of the park to produce a short film.

Wilton Lodge Park events manager Gordon Webber said: “It is an exciting year for Wilton Lodge Park and we thought it would be nice to get a youth perspective on the life of the park.

“Lots will be going on with the usual events programme but also the addition of the new café, playpark and bridge. There should be lots of material there to capture.”

Project manager Dawn Berry added: “We will provide the tools and guidance needed to film, edit and score the film but ultimately we want the input from the youth participants on what they want to see in the film and tell their story of the park’s life.”

The first information meeting for the project will take place on Saturday, January 28 at 12 noon in the theatre at Heart of Hawick.
