Restich: the social summit, convened by CREATE STREETS and Labour Together is a great slice through all kinds of activism in the field of social and physical regeneration. I am so pleased to join a session on the role of heritage, stitching and retrofit asking why do we have to look back to move forward? My thoughts… We HAVE to reign in sprawl, allow towns to become more themselves as they grow. And places don’t become themselves by accident. Yes, there are local materials but also a history of crazy characters. It was always tough to fund development and there are incredible stories of bankruptcy along the way. Those who glorified their home towns, delivering philanthropic projects, and responding to frequent changes in fashion, had great tenacity. It feels as if the last fifty years of building what -people-want, housebuilder architecture, is stuck in its own cul de sac. Houses feel accidental and placeless, not responding in anyway to the climate challenges and connectivity needed to make genuine neighbourhoods. We can build new places if they are dense and benefit from our instinctive and collective knowledge of how to live. Excited to join this discussion!

Memorial Day isn't just a time for barbecues and the unofficial start of summer; it is a profound reminder of the sacrifices made for the freedoms we enjoy—and the opportunities those freedoms afford. Just as the brave men and women who served our nation displayed courage and dedication, we, too, must harness these qualities as we embark on our personal and professional journeys of self-improvement. Self-growth requires ambition, resilience, and commitment to forge ahead, just as those heroic individuals did on the front lines for our freedom. As you (we) honor Memorial Day, take a moment to reflect on how the principles of sacrifice and determination can fuel your path to excellence. Remember that the most significant transformations often require small, consistent efforts over time—be it refining a skill, embracing new challenges, or fostering deeper connections in your professional network. In paying tribute to those who dedicated their lives to our nation, let their legacy inspire you to break barriers and elevate your potential. Your ambitions today can become the achievements of tomorrow, and your personal growth can be a testament to the sacrifices of those who came before you. The choices you make now are not just for yourself but your lasting tribute to those who have paved the way for a future of endless possibilities. Each decision, each step towards self-improvement, is a testament to the courage and dedication of those who served our nation. Your choices matter, and they can honor the sacrifices of Memorial Day in a meaningful way.
