case study: Blackburn with Darwen ExploreBwD app
Rocca. began work with Blackburn with Darwen Council in 2019. The authority commissioned Rocca. to produce an app which would encourage the residents of Blackburn and Darwen to explore local parks and green spaces.
The work was undertaken as part of Sport England's funding for physical activity engagement local development partnerships. The app uses Global Positioning Software (GPS) to take users around parks and green spaces, and can even be used to create personal walks.
At the back end of the platform an admin area allows the authority to deploy routes and points of interest. Importantly it provides realtime information on the activities of people in the area, split by defined demographics (ie. gender, ethnicity, disability).
Although the project was launched as a pilot it is now in ts second year and has been invaluable during the COVID19 pandemic for its users.
