Jonty said

“Community wealth building in Sunderland will be achieved through the collective will and vision of Sunderland City Council and the city’s anchor institutions. In this workshop, we discussed how anchors can come together to drive this agenda forward, with a particular focus on developing fair HR and workforce policies across the board.”
