Our experience makes us

Grant has created experiences directly from archive materials, in developing FootFall he led a team of volunteers and staff, then commissioned a team of creatives to produce a large scale outdoor promenade performance, deep in the woodland at Hardcastle Crags.

This was captured on film, FootFall and was acknowledge as one of the most successful parts of the ‘People ‘s Landscape’ national program.

Content planning and presentation allied with well researched walking routes were key to the success event.
