The Bridge and Entrepreneurial Futures in conjunction with Groundswell present:
Landscape Futures Workshop come and help play-test an app exploring Newquay's future Newquay residents are invited to book in for a 90 minute session to play-test the prototype of Landscape Futures - a smartphone application designed to help communities explore potential changes to their local environment. The app has been developed by Design Researcher in Residence, Brooke Heathcock, in partnership with Creative Kernow and Dr Jamie Harper, as part of an initiative to enable communities to visualise the future of Newquay.
This workshop, facilitated by Groundswell, is your chance to interact with the prototype, explore how it works, and share your thoughts. Your feedback will be invaluable in shaping the app into a tool that can support place-making initiatives and help communities actively engage with ideas about local development.
What will I do? Test the application by viewing and exploring proposed changes to the Newquay area and sharing your feedback. The test session will involve some movement around the town centre, so please come prepared to spend some time outdoors.
Who’s invited? People who live or work in Newquay who care about shaping the future of the area.
Why Get Involved? Be part of a project that’s all about empowering communities to have their say in how their environment changes and grows.
Where to meet? We will meet at Newquay Library at the start of the session to explain how the app works. We'll then head out to test it and return to the library for a short conversation about your experience.
What times? There are three workshop sessions to choose from:
10:30am -12:00pm
1:00pm - 2:30pm
2:00pm - 4:30pm
