Bradford is to host a convention next month that aims to widen decision-making across the North to include a more diverse range of people and experiences.
The ‘People’s Powerhouse Convention’ will see the launch of the People’s Powerhouse charter, which will set out a vision to help address challenges currently faced by the North, including a low wage economy, mental health and skills gaps.
The event will take place on 20 November from 10.00am to 4.30pm at Valley Parade.
