A DRAWING tutor at the University of the Creative Arts (UCA) in Farnham has won a national award from deafblind charity, Sense.

Alex McEwan, who won in the ‘creativity’ category, received the award for her contribution to the charity’s Arts and Well-being programme, where she’s been instrumental in designing and delivering craft and textiles workshops for groups of older people across London.

“I am honoured to have won the Sense Creativity Award 2015,” said Alex.

“My creative journey with Sense has been extremely rewarding, for the work we have done with the Arts & Well-being team to be acknowledged in this way is a fitting tribute to all those who made the project possible.”
