Norwich 12 is taking part in this year's Heritage Open Days, England's largest and most popular voluntary cultural event, celebrating all of its fantastic architecture and culture by offering free access to events and interesting properties that are usually closed to the public or normally charge for admission.

It is a great opportunity to visit the Norwich 12 buildings free of charge, especially those not usually open to the public.

Organising an Event

If you wish to host an event alongside the Norwich 12, please contact Sophie Cabot at sophiecabot@heritagecity.org.

Your event must...

• take place during the designated dates (8th - 11th September)
• be of heritage interest.
• be free to the public
• be something which is not usually available, or not usually free of charge.
• be held in a building that you or your organisation are responsible for, or one with which you have a formal agreement.
• must be registered with HEART.

HODs will provide insurance, publicity, guidance and support for events, such as advice on funding and matching up with volunteers. The success of HODs is dependent on an army of passionate and dedicated volunteer stewards and HEART is always interested to hear from people interesting in volunteering to support events.

This year, some of the events will be leisure and pastime themes in anticipation of the 2012 Olympic Games. Your event doesn't have to be themed this way however, and regular, more traditional events are also welcommed to the programme.
