LfW New Brand Image

Stretching myself outside of my comfort zone somewhat, I’ve spent the last few weeks creating a new web-site for Live from Worktown, a community interest group that I’m a part of. For various reasons we’ve had the need to urgently create a new web-site, so I tentatively put my hand up to do this.

Although I’ve managed my own blog for a few years, actually starting this from scratch was a bit daunting, but its turned out to be a hugely rewarding experience. I was pleased to be able to use one of my photos of Bolton’s Skyline, taken on a misty winter’s morning in 2020 as the lead image on the site. This is what the original sunrise-coloured version looked like.

Live from Worktown is a Bolton-based voluntary arts and heritage organisation – we organise poetry festivals and anthologies, magazine-style arts and heritage programmes on Bolton FM, jazz events, cultural cabaret live nights, photography competitions and exhibitions, heritage and history walks plus educational events about writer and playwright Bill Naughton.

Its a blog-style web-site so that our latest news and events are shown on the homepage, but with links to watch, listen or read to our recorded events, radio shows, anthologies and writing or, in fact anything else that we produce in a digital format. Click on the image below to find out more!
