Here’s to the next chapter for High Wycombe Life Magazine, full of lots more local storytelling, shared successes, and bringing people together. 🥂
💬 How do we build stronger local economies?
It’s a question that’s becoming increasingly important across the UK, as communities look to unlock growth, create opportunity and shape their own economic futures.
Last week at Patch Gloucester, business leaders, policymakers, community organisations and Gloucestershire’s MPs came together to explore exactly that.
📍 From inclusive growth and regional investment to local procurement, skills and social value, the conversations highlighted the power of collaboration in building more resilient and inclusive places.
👏 Thank you to our speakers, and to Business Insights Gloucestershire, , the Social Value Ideas Factory, and everyone who contributed their time, ideas and expertise.
🏛️ At Patch, we believe places matter. Our spaces are designed to bring together the people, ideas and partnerships that help local economies and communities thrive. We’re excited to continue supporting the conversations and collaborations that help those ideas become reality.
