A major youth led culture and sport programme for Lancashire and the Fylde Coast which empowers young people as dynamic participants and creators, engaging them in active lifestyles and place shaping.
By 2012, the people of the North West will be taken on voyages of discovery both outdoor and online. New connections between people and places, sport and art and physical and virtual worlds will be created.
The programme will be led by young people in Lancashire and they will be creating, commissioning and sharing their engagement with new events and activities.
Lancashire County Council, the Fylde Coast authorities and Creative Lancashire have come together to create this ambitious programme that puts young people at the heart of the project. The decisions, the ideas and the vision will be theirs, the enjoyment and the experience will be for everyone.
