*POSTPONED - NEW DATE COMING SOON*

How can culture shape the identity of a busy place, strengthen local communities, and unlock new possibilities and outcomes?

Join the expert panel of placemaking practitioners and local cultural and business leaders to explore what it means to work together to shape places where culture is not an afterthought, but is embedded as a driving force for connection, belonging and growth.

We'll discuss what sort of place-based collaboration is needed to turn ideas and ambitions for Wandsworth Town into real delivery that will shape the area's future identity.
