SCIP Storytelling Project

The SCIP stroytelling project is supported by the National Lottery though the Arts Council of England for researchers, writers, photographers, storytellers, publicists and author/publishers. Since October 1997, alone, in pairs or in groups, Brightonians have been looking at the public places and local resources associated with the the life of Dr. William Moon. The idea of Telling Brighton Stories was contributed by Sarah Wright. The exploration was lead by Maire McQueeney, a tour guide and author publisher with a new interest in the world wide web. Maire contributed the topic.
