This CAKE is our 50th – a proud milestone for us – and comes at a time of change and adaptation: how we work and collaborate in a post-Covid environment; what ‘Levelling Up’ might mean for the region; and, how we choose to sustain and develop our places and spaces, particularly in response to the Climate Crisis.

This event will hear from practitioners and organisations and will look at how creativity helps us to be inspired and challenged, and how we can convene and celebrate the potential of our urban and rural spaces.

The event will include a panel discussion with inspirational speakers as well as an opportunity to ask the panel questions. Participants will have the opportunity to network with peers who share similar interests.
