Community Wealth Building continues
CLES continues to undertake work around community wealth building and particularly anchor institutions in Preston, Birmingham, Oldham and across 11 cities in Europe.
This week, CLES Deputy Chief Executive, Matthew Jackson will be presenting the key findings of our recent publication ‘Community Wealth Building through Anchor Institutions’ to three audiences: the Salford Social Value Alliance, the Yorkshire and Humber Regional Policy Network, and the Lowestoft Commissioning Academy.
Interest in this work is growing, as can be seen by this recent article in The Guardian and roundtable event with Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell and actor and political activist Michael Sheen.
