This conversation will explore a new, community‑powered model of regeneration rooted in co‑operative values and local consensus. The discussion will examine why putting people at the centre leads to better, more trusted regeneration, and how co‑operative principles can offer a practical, future‑focussed alternative for places seeking fairer, more inclusive development.
