VISITOR CENTRE Horsham Visitor Information Centre / Horsham Museum & Art Gallery Horsham Museum & Art Gallery, 9 Causeway, Horsham, RH12 1HE (01403) 254959 | www.horshammuseum.org Welcome to the 2018 Horsham District Events Guide, compiled by AAH (All About Horsham) in association with Horsham District Council’s Visitor Economy Partnership. The guide provides details of major events on the district’s events calendar. It also highlights just some of the numerous fantastic places to visit, a selection of pubs and restaurants, as well as accommodation in the area. However, you can find out much more at the Horsham Visitor Information Centre, located at Horsham Museum, located within one of the oldest town buildings along the historic Causeway. The centre will help you discover Horsham town, where Sussex heritage combines with the cosmopolitan air created by
independent shops, outdoor cafes, pubs and restaurants along cobbled streets. Part of the charm is generated by the largely pedestrianised centre, allowing a leisurely shopping and dining experience in a town renowned for its blooms and public art. Swan Walk Shopping Centre is home to a wealth of high street names and a fine selection of independent quality brands, whilst the new John Lewis at Home and Waitrose store is a fine addition to the town. The Shoppers Guide and Places to Eat Guide provides a detailed list of places to eat and drink, with over 90 bars, restaurants, cafes, pubs and coffee shops catering for every palette. The Visitor Information Centre and website also has information on hotels, bed and breakfasts, self-catering and campsite accommodation, as well as upcoming events,
information on villages, places to visit and things to do. One of the best places to start is Horsham Museum and Art Gallery itself, celebrating 125 years this year. With more than 26 galleries covering subjects from local trades to fashion, and prehistory to the poet Percy B. Shelley, the museum has been described as the “Victoria & Albert in miniature”. With ever-changing temporary exhibitions, award-winning gardens and 26 galleries, there is always something different to see. Highlights include an exhibit on dinosaurs, featuring the remains of the Great Horsham Iguanodon discovered by George Bax Holmes, a narwhal horn once thought to belong to a unicorn and mementoes from the time of the ‘Acid Bath Murderer’ John Haigh, who was held in a Horsham police cells.

CHRIST’S HOSPITAL Invites Bursary Applications for 2019 Entry
Are you aware of a child who would benefit from a boarding education, regardless of family means? Christ’s Hospital, Horsham invites applications for bursary (fee assisted) places which can cover up to 100% of fees. Current Year 5 pupils who are considering secondary education in September 2019 are invited to apply. Simon Reid, Headmaster said: “All candidates applying for a place will be assessed on their potential, both academically and the broader curriculum opportunities. Currently meanstested bursaries are granted to nearly 650 of our (892) pupils; 20% of those receive a free place with nearly 35% paying less than 10% of the full boarding fee. Children attending the School are provided with uniforms, meals, accommodation and all teaching and learning materials. Being part of the boarding school community is a life-changing adventure.”
The closing date for applications for September 2019 entry into Year 7 is Friday, 14 September 2018.

Places can be booked online www.christs-hospital.org.uk
“My new School, Christ’s Hospital is amazing! It’s really fun boarding because it’s basically a big sleepover. You can always hang out with friends. The food is amazing and the best part is we get a fry up every morning. It’s really fun being able to march into lunch every day. My favourite lessons are Drama, Science, PE and Maths. In total, we have 18 different lessons, which is mad. It was a really big step coming here, but it was definitely worth it!” Jack, Year 7

The South Downs Way is a long distance footpath in Southern England and is one of Britain's National Trails. It runs for around 100 miles from Winchester in Hampshire to Eastbourne in Sussex, with a small loop around Eastbourne. The South Downs Way pases through the South Downs a beautiful area, which may soon become a National Park. The majority of the path is a bridleway and so can be used by horseriders and cyclists too.
Some of the most beautiful parts of the Way head through the Horsham District. The 7.5 mile walk from the village of Washington to Upper Beeding takes passes Chanctonbury Ring and Steyning Ring. It also offers fantastic views over Steyning to the North and the coast near Shorehamon-Sea to the south. Despite the picture (taken by Toby Phillips on a particularly gloomy day!) it’s a beautiful walk!
In 2018, the museum is celebrating 40 years. Dedicated to the industrial heritage of the South East, exhibits include a narrow-gauge railway and bus service (both provide free nostalgic travel around the site), Connected Earth Telecommunications Hall, Milne Electricity Hall, Printing Workshop and much more. The Museum is also home to traditional craftspeople, such as the blacksmith and potter. We aim to have at least three crafts demonstrated every day.
