How do you encourage 20,000 Christmas visitors to explore beyond the House? For the National Trust at Wallington, the answer lay in a real family story, a frozen pond and a little augmented reality magic. Here's how we created Robin's Lantern Quest.

What happens when you put the design of a heritage app in the hands of local schoolchildren? We worked with the North Pennines AONB Partnership and a class of Year 6 pupils from Alston to create a GPS-guided digital walking trail that gives families a reason to explore every corner of one of England's highest market towns.

Every place has stories worth telling — but connecting visitors with those stories isn't always straightforward. How digital walking trails are helping towns, landscapes and heritage organisations from King's Lynn to the North Pennines reveal their stories and engage more visitors.
