Game Of Thrones star Maisie Williams is to visit St Andrews University next month.
The actress, 21, will attend the institute’s careers week to promote Daisie – her social networking app for young artists.
It is described as “a playground for creative collaboration” allowing young people to follow their desired career path in a safe space.
Speaking about the app, Williams said: “Before Daisie, success in the creative industries has been wholly dependent on luck and ‘ins’ to the industry.
“Daisie introduces a new way into the creative world, through connections made organically and the natural development of your skills, propelling individuals to the next level.”
