Example projects
Examples of projects funded by Sea Change which explain why cultural regeneration was necessary and how the funding will be used.

Blackpool

Boscombe
Adding culture to the regeneration mix by involving artists in public space improvements and tackling accessibility issues.
Jaywick
Community consultation at the heart of a feasibility project for Jaywick’s open spaces.
Margate
