BBC Radio Ulster - Kintra, A shortbread bake-off, Christmas wreath-making, music and chat with the Highland Heathers in Kilkeel.

Seasonal crafts, music, cookery and chat with an Ulster-Scots community group in Kilkeel.

Kintra visits Kilkeel to meet members of the Highland Heathers community group. With cookery, crafts and music on offer - all with an Ulster-Scots flavour.

Helen Mark, Rab Lennox and Willie Hill take a trip to The Schomberg Society’s home – Reiver’s House in Kilkeel to meet the “Highland Heathers” community group.  The women are busy making Christmas Wreaths, there’s chat about their enthusiasm for cookery, and a prize-winning shortbread maker puts Rab and Willie to the test, while there’s a song or two from one of the members – Rachel Hutchinson.
As always, the team love to hear from listeners – you can email them with comments, ideas, a yarn to share or an Ulster-Scots event to promote - kintra@bbc.co.uk.
