The Horsham District Year of Culture 2019 is a celebration of culture and heritage within the Horsham district in West Sussex.
Visit www.hdculture2019.co.uk to find out more!
The aim is to raise the profile of culture and heritage within the Horsham district, with a focused programme of events across 2019 which will be supported by residents and visitors. We want there to be a cultural legacy left for the district which can be enjoyed by residents and visitors, long after 2019.
The Year of Culture is being sponsored by Horsham District Council, working in partnership with advisors comprising arts patrons, existing festival organisers and representatives from education, local businesses and the community.
We want to involve the community as much as possible, and hope that by the end of 2019, every resident would have had a chance to be a part of the Year of Culture.
Grants: To enable and organisations to go further and achieve more we will be providing grants - under £1,000, £1,000-£5,000 and over £5,000 - to support your ideas and, hopefully, make them possible.

For anyone watching this video who’s considering a move to Horsham, especially if you’re interested in moving to the town centre where many office blocks are being converted into apartments often with balconies, buyer beware! Horsham town centre includes a significant residential population. For the last 5 years the town centre has been plagued by a large number of boy racers in cars & on motorbikes with attenuated, high decibel exhaust pipes, excessive revving of engines, unnecessary sound of car horns & high speed racing in excess of 60mph in a 30mph zone. The anti-social motorists make incredibly loud, disruptive noise every daytime but in the evenings & weekends the problem gets significantly worse. Numerous local residents have complained to Sussex police for years but they refuse to address this relentless anti-social menace. Residents who have complained to Sussex police have been told “it’s a town centre, what do you expect?” But one can differentiate between town centre through-traffic & persistent anti social motorists when the same vehicles appear then re-appear over & over again all night long. Also Sussex police have made other statements like “it’s too expensive to police Horsham town centre traffic” & “it’s always been like this & always will be, the best thing you can do is move.” One resident threw Sussex police a red herring, reporting to them that the boy racers frequently sound their car horns for no apparent reason, when in fact this had never been a problem. Within 24 hours this behaviour became a common occurrence, starting with directly outside the property of the person who raised this issue which continues across the town centre to this very day. This suggests one or more staff at Sussex police are feeding intelligence back to the hive of anti-social motorists & is potentially providing them with a “free” pass to continue with their lawless behaviour. Sussex police have told local residents we need to do their job for them. Gathering details of repeat offenders, their physical appearance, make, model of car, license plates, photos, videos & a slew of other details. Many of us feel we didn’t move to Horsham town centre to become volunteer police informants when Sussex police state they “may or may not” take further information, based on the information provided by volunteer citizens. Taking into consideration there are Sussex police leaking confidential reports from members of the public back to the street, we’re considerably un-optimistic about how such volunteer reports will be responded to by Sussex police, risking the possibility of no meaningful resolution to this hellish situation. If you’re thinking of buying an apartment with a balcony this comment is most definitely for you. You’re guaranteed not to find a moments peace. This anti-social motorist problem is Horsham’s dirty little secret but the impact it’ll have on your quality of life is monumental.
