From what started last June as Liz providing PR support to Taunton-based not-for-profit arts organisation, Superact, for their project called Bandstand Marathon, an ongoing relationship has developed with Liz being awarded a 3 day a week contract to support the whole organisation with PR and Communications.

Bandstand Marathon brings live music performance to bandstands and outdoor performance spaces across the UK- all at the same time on the same day, this year on 9th September 2012.  The aim this year is for 500 events and the project is now the largest closing event of the London 2012 Festival.

Launch of the Bandstand Marathon 2012

Liz is proud to have co-ordinated the national launch of the project by Eric Pickles, Secretary of State for Local Communities and Government in Colchester on Good Friday this year.  She continues to raise the profile of the event at national level and even managed to get a mention on the Radio 2′s Chris Evans Breakfast Show!

In addition to the Bandstand Marathon, other Superact projects use creativity to improve the health and wellbeing of people from a wide variety of backgrounds and abilities. They use artists and musicians, both amateur & professional, to deliver highly successful projects in the healthcare, education and criminal justice systems.

Liz manages the social media accounts and websites for Superact in addition to issuing Press Releases, liaison with local and national media on all projects and represents Superact with UK and European partners.
