📢 Team announcement📢

There's never been a bigger need to put communities at the heart of decision making & public service design.

To help do this, I'm delighted to introduce the @wearenewlocal Policy and Research Team: @Grace_Pollard1, @Ihash123, @PLLord1 & @LA_Charlesworth!
First up, @Grace_Pollard1 is our Senior Policy Researcher and #communitypower expert. Having worked on a variety of research and practice projects, she understands the things councils and other public service organisations need to do to put communities at their heart. Reach out!
Next, @Ihash123 is our Senior Researcher. With a strong economic development and quantitative background, Imran will explore what communities want from their local economy and translate this into policy options for a range of new audiences. Get in touch!
Next, @PLLord1 is our Head of Local Public Services. With a super-strong background in policy development, her ability to navigate Whitehall, and her subject expertise of place making, green spaces, and employment, she'll explore core issues facing councils across the country.
And last but not least is @LA_Charlesworth! With an impressive career in the health sector, Laura is our Head of Health and will lead on all policy and research work that explores how we embed communities in decision making and health service design within the NHS and beyond.
All of the team are well worth a follow on here. They're engaging, inquisitive, and want to improve the lives of people and their communities across the country. And we are all spread out across the country too! If you're working in this space or have ideas, get in touch.

This is such an important piece in the FT. I remember leading on Brexit / Covid19 impacts and all roads led to SMEs - who have dwindled in number/output since GFC - getting squeezed to breaking point. How do we want this sector to operate? on.ft.com/39PCa8h

So many killer lines in this piece by @JerusalemDemsas.

theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
"When wealthy homeowners oppose new development in their neighborhoods—and when elected officials let them—fewer homes are built overall raising...prices for everyone. Their opposition...pushes what housing does get built into a handful of places where dissent is weaker"
"During late ’60s & ’70s, Osman writes “in a city long divided between renters & landlords, renters formed a class that unified Brownstone Brooklyn’s middle-class artists & professionals, white ethnics, & nonwhite poor.” They formed tenant councils & lobbied for tenants’ rights"
