LeftCoast is the Creative People and Places (CPP) project for Blackpool, delivering highly-engaging, socially-useful arts and cultural projects in the town.
RMR produced a series of evaluation reports for LeftCoast:
– Creative People and Places Evaluations
– Get Dancing
– The Upside
Get Dancing drew on Blackpool’s place within popular dance culture to crowdsource a new social dance. It was delivered by LeftCoast, Showtown Blackpool and dance company House of Wingz.
The Upside was a project run in the first six months of 2021 aimed at addressing issues of social isolation in some of Blackpool’s communities. The report was co-authored with writer and producer Alexandra O’Toole.
