Inequality. Racial injustice. Poverty wages. Overstretched and underfunded care systems and public services.
It doesn’t have to be like this.
Have your views heard about what should change after Covid-19 at this People’s Powerhouse online Listening Event with people from across the North, Sarah Longlands (Director of IPPR North) and three Northern metro mayors.
The People’s Powerhouse brings Northerners together so they can decide what the future of the North should look like. We’re here to ensure that what you want to say is heard by those with influence, so that better choices can be made.
We believe that the people are the true powerhouse of the North and our diversity is our strength.
The People’s Powerhouse Listening Events give people an opportunity to share their thoughts to ensure those with influence hear about the issues that matter to people.

Event topics
The conversation about what should change after Covid-19 will include, but not be limited to, the following topics: 1.) How we should care for each other and the most vulnerable; 2) How we support better work and more secure incomes; and 3) How we tackle racial injustice.
In addition to these issues, attendees/audience members can bring up any issue that they think should be prioritised in our recovery from Covid-19.
Agenda 10.00-12.30
10.00-11.00 People-led recovery. Join us from 10am, where Sarah Longlands (Director of IPPR North) will facilitate a public conversation on what our recovery from Covid-19 should look like. We will be focusing on three priorities of care, income and racial justice. But we encourage audience members to bring in other issues. What you say here will be fed into the next session with the Mayors.
11.00-12.00 - Leading recovery. In this session, Northern mayors Andy Burnham, Steve Rotheram and Jamie Driscoll will listen to northern citizens on the issues of care, income and racial justice. In the second half of this session, the Mayors will listen to contributions directly from the audience on whatever issues and topics audience members want to raise.
12.00-12.30 - Time for a Reset? We will continue the conversation by hearing reflections from the People's Powerhouse and the audience on what needs to happen next to make the changes we want to see.
