Gibraltar Heritage Trust Receives TOUR TALK System Donation from GHITA

The Gibraltar Heritage Trust is delighted to announce the recent donation of a state-of-the-art TOUR TALK system by the Gibraltar Hearing Issues & Tinnitus Association (GHITA). This generous contribution will significantly enhance the accessibility and inclusivity of our guided tours and heritage activities.

The TOUR TALK system is a wireless communication device that allows clear and effective communication between guides and participants, particularly benefitting individuals with hearing difficulties. It ensures that everyone, regardless of their hearing abilities, can fully engage with the rich history and cultural narratives that the Gibraltar Heritage Trust is committed to sharing.

Commenting on the donation Trust Chairman Ian Balestrino said:
"We are incredibly grateful to GHITA for this thoughtful and meaningful gesture. This system will make our tours more inclusive, ensuring that visitors with hearing challenges can participate fully in exploring Gibraltar’s unique heritage. We look forward to integrating this technology into our programs and providing an even better experience for all."

GHITA Chairperson, Edgar Triay, added:
"Our mission is to make Gibraltar more accessible for individuals with hearing issues. By providing the Gibraltar Heritage Trust with this TOUR TALK system, we hope to bridge gaps in accessibility and promote inclusivity in all aspects of cultural engagement. We are proud to partner with the Trust in preserving and sharing Gibraltar’s heritage."


The Gibraltar Heritage Trust is committed to preserving and promoting Gibraltar's history for all audiences. This new system will provide further accessibility and ensures that the stories of Gibraltar can reach an even wider audience.

We will now take some time to familiarise ourselves with the system and look forward to offering it as part of our tours and walks programme in the new year.
