Sight Support Heritage Project

We have begun working with Sight Support Derbyshire on a heritage WW1 project with their visually impaired members. We are working with groups in Chesterfield, Clay Cross and Derby to create tactile banners that will tour around the county at eye clinics and visual impaired centres.
The Sight Support Derbyshire organisation was set up in 1914, before the WW1 began so the banners will link these two important centenaries.
We have been researching with the groups at Derby Museum and at the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire.
