Podcast #21: Turnaround Towns with Carnegie UK Trust

December 16, 2019

Hot on the heels of the launch of the brand new Carnegie UK Trust report on Turnaround Towns in the UK, Russell is joined by Pippa Coutts, Carnegie’s Policy and Development Manager, to look at the stories of nine towns across the UK who have been on a journey to revive their fortunes.

Specifically, they discuss one of the commonalities shared by each of the towns: the role of community-led development, independent community-owned ‘anchor organisations’ to place-making in towns.
