CITY VIBE: Lincolnshire war veterans are invited to visit memorial battlefields

Lincolnshire war veterans are being asked to apply to the Big Lottery fund.

The Heroes Return Scheme are already sending over 700 veterans to historic battlefields such as the D-day landing beaches.

The National Lottery is encouraging veterans who have not visited memorials to start applying now for the grant which is now running until January 2011.

City Vibe’s Simon McKnight spoke to Mick McGrath, head of the Big Lottery fund in the East Midlands about the scheme.
