Background:
Heritage Plus is funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and run by the National Charity WRVS (famous for introducing meals on wheels).
Heritage Plus delivers a range of activities, events and outings in Sussex celebrating and recording people's individual and community histories.
The Big Draw is a unique national festival held every October. This year it celebrates its 10th birthday. It is part of the Campaign for Drawing launched in 2000.
The aim of the Campaign is to change the way drawing is regarded by educationalists and the public. The Campaign's work will finish when the words "I can't draw" are dropped from the vocabulary.
