RSA Bicentenary Medal Lecture Thursday 4 November, 6pm David Constantine MBE, co-founder of Motivation is awarded the 2010 Bicentenary Medal for using design to improve people’s resourcefulness.  David will explain how sustainable design concepts can be used to address the mobility of disabled people, as well as enhancing their social and economic rehabilitation. The Bicentenary Medal was created in 1954 to commemorate the founding of the Society. It was originally awarded to a person who, while not an industrial designer, had exerted an exceptional influence in promoting art and design in British industry.  The medal is still awarded annually to a non-designer who has had a strong influence in their field on the way design is used and appreciated, and who does, or is likely to, contribute to a major part of  the RSA's work.
