Vote for Folkestone to see Radio 1 DJ Sara Cox and comedian Rufus Hound sand sculpting in Folkestone, as their final challenge in the National Lottery Good Causes Road Trip.

Where they go and what they do will be determined by public vote, so please get voting to ensure that Folkestone’s lottery-funded public art project, the Folkestone Triennial, takes top spot for the South on 18 November, and ask family, friends and colleagues to vote too.  If the voting is successful the celebrities will be pitting their creativity and sandcastle-building skills against one another in a sand sculpture competition on the beach, come rain or shine!
