I am greater murals have been painted in three
locations across Greater
Manchester – Tameside, Bury and Salford.
Young people designed the murals with an artist (Oskar with a k)
and were taught how to spray paint.
Different colours were used for each mural to make them unique
– this made paint costs higher than initially expected.
The end point survey will evaluate the performance of the second
phase of the campaign and act as a baseline for the third phase. We
have used a survey company (Obsurvant) to ensure a good number of
responses, as previously we have struggled to have young people
complete surveys. A
pair of airpods have also been purchased by Hitch as an incentive
for young people to complete the survey.
The GM VRU is seeking to provide Hitch
Marketing with an extra £2,202 to cover additional costs for
the I am greater murals and end-point survey.
£8,410 was initially awarded to Hitch for this work,
additional spend was required to cover material costs
(underestimated initially) and survey completion. This Decision
replaces a Decision published on 20/12/2022, in which in the
incorrect amount of £2002 was stated.
