Levelling Up Communities?

Danny Kruger has written a report in response to the Prime Minister, who “asked me for proposals to sustain the community spirit we saw during the lockdown.”

Find the report here: https://www.dannykruger.org.uk/communities-report

Kofi Smiles had a short conversation with Billy about questions raised in our community by the report – here’s the interview.

East Marsh United were happy to be involved with the All Party Parliamentary Group on ‘Left Behind’ neighbourhoods (despite the daft title – we have agency, you know!), which is another initiative in similar vein. It’s fantastic that these things are being talked about and that communities are being placed front and centre.

I suppose two key questions might be whether the recommendations are sufficient for the broken model we currently have, and will Government adopt any of them?What do you think?
