Breif: The brief was to regenerate the Lake District, making it more appealing and relevant to the modern day younger generation; taking it away from its preconceived image of retired walkers.

I have taken the theme of extreme sports that take place within the Lake District.

I have developed an online magazine and App that showcases Lake district events and extreme sports as well as being interactive for users by getting them to upload their own photographs of their extreme sports activities and achievements.

This allows them to win a place within the magazine of being photograph of the week/month; therefore encouraging people to download the magazine each month.

The App includes an online magazine, photo gallery and route up-loader and planner; allowing people to recreate their journey for other people to experience.
