People’s Powerhouse is a North-based organisation working to strengthen the connection between people and power. We create spaces where lived experience, local insight and evidence can meaningfully shape decisions that affect everyday life — particularly across Northern places.
These events form part of our Community Wells webinar series: a programme of open conversations with thinkers, practitioners and leaders exploring what helps people and places to live well, thrive and lead change from the ground up. The series is designed to be practical, reflective and accessible – supporting healthier, fairer and more democratic approaches to place and policy.
What really makes a place thrive?
