Culture & Placemaking

Culture and placemaking play a powerful role in public sector strategy, combining arts, heritage, public space and community engagement to strengthen local identity and support wider regeneration goals. From improving wellbeing and supporting the night-time economy to revitalising high streets and aligning with Levelling Up, this sector is increasingly central to place-based investment.

Perfect Circle partnered with Rochdale Borough Council to support their Rochdale Creates campaign, delivering a flagship Culture & Placemaking Directory Website designed to showcase the borough’s creative sector. The platform brings together artists, musicians, venues and cultural organisations into a single searchable hub.

Built on world leading CMS technology, it’s simple for the Rochdale Creates team to manage and update while allowing users to generate and submit listings that keep the directory growing and community led. Our role spanned stakeholder engagement, content design, copywriting, UX and technical build.

The result is a digital platform that strengthens cultural visibility, encourages collaboration and supports long-term public sector priorities for cultural growth and placemaking. More than 100 creatives signed up in the first four weeks. If you’re looking to commission a culture and placemaking project, especially one with a digital dimension, talk to us. We know this space and as the UK’s leading social marketing agency we know how to deliver.
