Boscombe

For our first uni project Creativity in Context I decided to do a photo essay on the regeneration of Boscombe.

I think I have only scratched the surface with my project so far, so I will continue working on this project whilst I'm in Bournemouth.

As a part of the redevelopment scheme to regenerate and revitalise the area of Boscombe, the council spent £3m to build Europe's first artificial reef in Boscombe.

"The reef will give that area of beach its own identity, raise the profile of Boscombe and attract a large number of visitors on an annual basis." Quote from the Bournemouth council website.

On the other hand only a few streets up from the beach, the story is a bit different.
