The latest episode of the Placecast podcast brings Nicola Headlam together with Dr Sarah Longlands, Chief Executive of the Centre for Local Economic Strategies, to explore why place should sit at the centre of policy, local economic development and community wellbeing.
Their conversation highlights the limitations of one-size-fits-all policy models and makes a compelling case for approaches grounded in lived experience and local context.
