About the event

Be part of the transformation in local government

A revolution is taking place in local government. Across the country, co-operators in local and metro government are using co-operative approaches to shape local economies and services and to put local people in control.

Learn about

• Smarter and Stronger – new ideas for co-operative communities
  Hear examples and case studies of co-operative councils across the country
• Local collaboration in education
  Co-operative approaches to education that retain the link between schools and the communities they serve.
• Housing: building new foundations
  Housebuilding for people, not profit and the models of co-operative housing available.
• Building Community Wealth
  Community wealth building and the ‘Preston Model’ of co-operative-driven economic regeneration
