Heart n Soul is a creative arts charity that believes in the power and talents of people with learning disabilities. It is based at the Albany in Deptford. To mark Heart n Soul's 30th birthday we created this Big 30 Archive website with interviews, portraits and videos to celebrate artists, participants, staff and supporters with and without learning disabilities.

Below are introductory videos that tell you all about Heart n Soul, what it does and what The Big 30 Archive is all about.
