Join us for a day of inspirational ideas and practical solutions to build Wakefield’s wellbeing economy.
Community wealth building can begin to spread wealth, empower communities, transform our district 
economy and deliver a just transition to a low carbon economy.

Keynote: Matthew Brown (Democracy Collaborative, Preston Town Council, co-author of Paint Your Town Red) will introduce us to principles and practice of community wealth building, highlight the successes and pitfalls, using examples from across the country.

Hear case studies from successful community enterprises demonstrating the potential for ordinary people to work together to deliver the services their community needs.

Time and space for discussion and questioning.

Whether you are an “anchor institution”, a local group or local business, this conference is for you. Come and be inspired to create a movement to lift our district.

Organised by Just Transition Wakefield and Unite Community Leeds, Wakefield and York Branch.
