Creativeworld has been officially appointed by Blackburn Council and Maple Grove Developments as the preferred marketing agency to design, develop and produce all marketing particulars for the Cathedral Quarter.

They will be given the responsibility of creating a new brand identity, along with a unique marketing strategy to promote the development to local businesses and people moving forward.

Of the recent appointment, Creativeworld’s Simon Swindells said: “Being involved with Cathedral Quarter in particular was something our whole team was keen to be a part of and get involved with.

“Blackburn is a town with an exciting future ahead of it with big plans and investment coming through, and the Cathedral quarter is set to become a major part of this future.

“We are proud as a local business to be a part of it moving forward.”

Clare Turner from Blackburn with Darwen Council added: “Creativeworld impressed the team with their understanding and wide experience of the development and property sector.

“Their professional approach and understanding of the brief has meant they have quickly became a valued part of the team, resulting in some already impressive work.

“We are delighted to work with them to successfully deliver such a transformational regeneration scheme for Blackburn town centre.”

The new development will create a new, vibrant, mixed use quarter around the Cathedral in Blackburn Town Centre and will comprise a six-story office building, 60 bed Premier Inn hotel , a range of shops and restaurant space as well as car parking.

The buildings are arranged to create a new 'Cathedral Close' within which a new public square will be formed.
