More about our impact
The local economy
"Attendances for the 2024 festival were significantly bigger than those of 2023. I can’t thank Blog Preston enough for their help with this success." The words of Garry Cook who organised the Lancashire Fringe Festival which we covered extensively.
Volunteering, jobs & education
Lots of our stories involve volunteer-led organisations, such as arts groups - for example https://www.blogpreston.co.uk/2024/07/preston-drama-club-to-perform-amateur-premiere-of-play-by-local-lad-turned-west-end-star/ We've seen organisations receive upturns in volunteer enquiries after being featured
Arts, culture & heritage
We've been able to cover more variety of arts and culture events happening in the city, and also have a listings section where organisers and individuals can showcase events taking place
Activity, health and leisure
Our what's on section and stories are being seen by more people than ever before - the crowdfunder has helped us nearly double the volume of what's on stories about arts and culture on our site
