At #NotWestminster last month this image struck a chord.

Another great day yesterday in Huddersfield celebrating local participatory democracy and citizen agency at the 10th #notwestminster conference. Great to see everyone and thank you @notwestminster.bsky.social and Diane for your great efforts in making it a consistent success!

An interesting and inspiring day at this years #notwestminster
Fired up by the morning at #Notwestminster and stories of councillors as community workers in Test Valley, community-led housing developments in Frome, and developing local People’s Charters. Loving being back in Huddersfield, a place from my childhood and reconnecting with this place.
Really looking forward to this session - moving to an enabler mindset where councils create conditions for communities to thrive #NotWestminster
