As part of Blackpool town centre regeneration, artist Laurence Payot will work with local schools and residents to design a permanent statue which will be situated near the North Pier.
It will become a new local figure, inspired by sea goddesses and hero across cultures, with a strong made in Blackpool feel.
It will reflect on the achievements of Blackpool to improve the quality of the town’s sea water and give a message of hope for our endangered global aquatic environment.
