Better Places Together comprises three distinct parts: Commission, Delivery, Legacy.

For each part, a small group of diverse storytellers will set the scene, drawing on their personal experiences to provide the foundation for discussions, provocations and reflections. Our storytellers will be from a wide range of backgrounds and ages and help to present different experiences with place.

After each set of Storytellers, attendees will participate in facilitated group discussions and exchanges of ideas. Together we will explore what goes wrong - and right - at each stage and how we could improve the process.

Groups will be broad and representative, enabling participants to reflect on the experiences of others and the opportunities that exist to do things differently.

A reflection session will enable participants to hear from each other and other groups, and key observations to be fed back. Finally, an interactive session will bring the event to a close, with a series of prompts to help participants create an Action Plan for taking their learning from the conference into their work, helping to take learning into action.

We will also be running Fringe events on Wednesday 11th June. More details to follow.
