Re-Wilding Revoe Part 2 Project 2025 Patrycja Wolak University of Central Lancashire | UK Blackpool, long rooted in its identity as a seaside resort, prioritises tourism-led regeneration, often at the expense of long-term preservation and local investment. While popular with visitors, it faces ongoing neglect of its communities. This thesis proposes a sustainable redevelopment model that centres community well-being and animal welfare.At its core is the revival of Blackpool’s traditional donkey business—once a cultural icon—through a contemporary, community-led sanctuary and farm. This project reimagines donkeys not as attractions, but as part of a care-based, educational, and therapeutic framework. By embedding repair-focused infrastructure and ethical animal practices, the initiative honours heritage while promoting inclusive, sustainable tourism.It explores how the Revoe regeneration model can inspire similar community transformations elsewhere. The post-pandemic rise in pet ownership signals a shift in attitudes—animals are seen more as companions, reshaping how public spaces and transport can become more inclusive and animal-friendly.
