Our Future City – have your say
We’ve started something called Our Future City.
It’s a six-month conversation across the city that seeks to improve the lives and life-chances of children and young people in Brighton & Hove through cultural engagement and creative skills.
It’s co-ordinated by a group of cultural and education based agencies but is not led by any one body. It is not an initiative or project but an attempt to have a genuine dialogue about our city’s future and to generate renewed common purpose and deliverable ideas.
