Working with award-winning Bristol-based app developers, Calvium, Bristol Parkhive (a UWE/Bristol Parks Forum collaboration in support of Bristol’s European Green Capital Year 2015) is creating a smartphone app to promote Bristol's parks and green spaces to visitors and serve as a valuable resource for residents.
The app will connect information about parks facilities, walking routes and trails, parks groups activities and events, travel info, and local stories and histories, into a user-friendly, visually appealing digital product which aims to enhance the usability and visibility of ALL of Bristol’s parks and green spaces.
We are seeking students to help develop the content for the app, by generating and producing content for specific parks and green spaces, writing copy and doing some simple research.
