Digital Revoluton

How we took our creative programme online overnight

When the UK went into lockdown in response to the COVID-19 pandemic on 23 March 2020, our usual venues became 'off limits' over night.

In true Revoluton style, we seized the opportunity to embrace digital with gusto.

Over the course of 12 weeks, we delivered over 99 hours of live, interactive online events and activities.

Outcomes

Employment opportunities created

• Created 3 new roles within our team to support delivery of our digital programme

Partnership working
