Do join us in a roundtable discussion with a range of people to explore what is distinct about what they are doing in the North and whether there is a common thread.  Several people have suggested that the Better Way model in Time for a Change captures the practices that will deliver real change.  We want to hear what you think and how we might collectively propagate new ways of doing things.

Over the last year there has been much interest and some cynicism about the Government’s commitment to ‘levelling up’ and what this might mean for people in the North and Midlands.  At the same time, there are many places across the area where people and communities are already doing ground-breaking things.  This is patchy and diverse, but momentum is building to do things in a very different way. 

Laura Seebohm, our Convenor in the North, will host the discussion, which will be introduced by panellists who are currently ‘doing things differently’ from a range of contexts including a local authority exploring public sector reform, a place-based community business, a specialist charity for racially minoritised communities and a large housing association. We also want to hear from you as we go into break out groups.

This event is aimed at anyone who is interested in bringing about change: public and voluntary sector, community businesses and private sector, including individuals and organisations who are connecting institutions and individuals.
