Introducing SEEN in Chester
Involving teachers and their pupils in regeneration activity
SEEN is a Chester-based initiative which specialises in involving schoolchildren in local regeneration projects.
Run by a Steering Group of planning, design and education professionals drawn from local authority and private practice, its main aims are to:
- enable children and young people to contribute to decision-making about local places and issues
- connect young people with key decision-makers and planners, including Officers and Councillors
- stimulate children’s interest in the wider environment of Chester District by providing a real context for their learning
- empower children to make tangible contributions to meaningful projects
Over the last 10 years, seen projects have resulted in around 5,000 children leaving their imprint on the local environment.
