Highstreet Recovery: revitalising our town centres

Talk

Thursday 26 May 2022
15:00 - 16:00

How can we revitalise our town centres? In this talk we will explore specific projects and will consider how to utilise their successes.

Our town centres are coming to terms with the constant flux of issues and changes in our post-Covid city. From this time of turbulence, several schemes and projects have been developed strategically to revitalise our town centres and aid our highstreets in their recovery.

We will hear from several projects that operate across a range of scales that are part of dynamic regeneration and retrofit schemes, from borough-wide to location-specific. Can our use of data to monitor the recovery of our highstreets provide vital insight and how has retail and hospitality’s financial climate also impacted their post-Covid revitalisation?

Can we learn from the successes of the suburbs and apply them in the City? An area still struggling with the aftermath of the pandemic.

Join us for this in-person event as part of Clerkenwell Design Week 2022.
