talking, walking, creating – together
One of our core aims is to bring people together to share different ways of thinking and seeing. The PLACE Collective will follow a direction that’s largely determined by what its members bring and what others ask of it. A steering group drawn from the members meets regularly and we tap into the wisdom and advice of the ‘advisory board’. Together we work behind the scenes to ensure PLACE is on track with its ethos and goals, stays open minded, and keeps facing forwards. Here’s a short introduction to who we are.
