With afternoon sunshine streaming into the Hidden Cities office, and Bloomsbury's parks suddenly filling with children happily playing, it is clear that Spring certainly has arrived. And it is very welcome!

For us, March began with a wonderful Bloomsbury Festival dinner, kindly hosted by Grange Hotels. The evening brought together some of the potential major stakeholders in the Festival, over delicious food and wine to discuss plans for this year. Roma has been busy meeting with lots of local artists and cultural partners to develop new projects for this year's Festival, and even at this early stage, they are looking incredibly exciting. In May, we are hosting a reception for local businesses to hear more about how they can become involved with this year's Festival over a glass of champagne - if you are interested in attending, please contact Maddy: maddy@hidden-cities.com

Seasider has been heavily involved with co-ordinating the development of the STEP concept which is generating huge levels of supports across the public and private sector. If you are interested in finding out more, please contact Maddy: mj@seasider.co.uk.

Seasider is also busy developing this year's Summer project, Signpost the Coast. Keep your eye on the Seasider website for the most up to date news to be released in June.
