Audience Development Plan - River Lambourn Urban Restoration Project
We worked with Resources for Change to complete an Audience Development Plan for the final 2.5km of the River Lambourn as it flows through Newbury, Berkshire. The plans will support a bid in the region of £1 million to the Heritage Lottery Fund. The project aims to bring improvements to a locally important green space as well as providing an opportunity to increase awareness of the river’s place in local history and its significant heritage value. It will provide a valuable educational opportunity to raise awareness of issues surrounding the way society interacts with local freshwater environments. A key aim of the work with the Pang, Kennet & Lambourn Valley Countryside Project was to carry out consultation with existing and missed audiences which will lead to increased community involvement with the site.
Hylton Castle & Dene Audience Development Plan We assisted R4C in the production of an ADP for Hylton Castle & Dene. Hylton Castle and Hylton Dene are located in Sunderland and the castle is one of the oldest secular buildings in the City and Hylton Dene is a popular park that is of recreational value and ecological interest.
Audience Development Plan - RSPB Rainham Marshes
Carried out research to produce an Access and Audience Development Plan for Rainham, Wellington and Aveley Marshes RSPB Nature Reserve for a Heritage Lottery Grant Application (now approved). The study included an analysis of current audiences, analysis of the barriers to participation, setting objectives for audience development with priority audiences and measurable targets and developing an action plan to achieve objectives for each target audience. The second stage involved assisting the RSPB to develop a business plan for the new flagship visitor attraction.
Audience Development Plan - Wat Tyler Country Park
We completed an Audience Development Plan for Wat Tyler Country Park in support of a Heritage Lottery Fund grant application. Our work involved carrying out a market assessment (including primary research), identifying barriers which discouraged some potential visitor groups and suggesting ways to increase visitor levels.
