5 Go Mad - An Introduction

Hi everyone!

Thanks for visiting and welcome to our blog! We're 5 Art and Design students from West Lancashire College in Skelmersdale and we've been set the challenge by VISIT to discover our local area using only public transport. Here is our brief ... 

"The VISIT* project has agreed to sponsor five students from West Lancashire College to visit local attractions using public transport.

On their travels, the students will find out how easy it is to visit the best spots West Lancs had to offer, travelling solely by public transport. The students will take photos and publish a blog of their experience.
The project is called '5 Go Mad in West Lancashire' in  tribute to Enid Blyton's Famous Five.

The overall aim is to demonstrate the way public transport can be used to visit interesting places in West Lancashire and show that using public transport can lead to an enjoyable day, visit and experience."


Over the next few weeks, we will be updating this blog with -


  • Where we went
  • How we got there
  • The cost of travel
  • What we found when we got there


We will also be updating this blog with tons of pictures of our visits. We have visits to Ormskirk, Rufford and Burscough planned, so keep checking back for all the latest updates on our adventures!
