Preston Threads
Welcome to the Preston Thread Podcast!
Welcome to Preston Threads, hosted by Neetal Parekh, the podcast that will dive under the skin of our communities to uncover what Community Wealth Building really means. Together, we’ll explore how it’s shaping change across the city, supporting the new Corporate Plan, and driving forward our city’s strategy for the future.
Our episodes will be talking to councillors, artists, business owners, and community representatives who are working hand in hand with the city council, and with each other, to test new ideas, rethink traditional business models, and build more collaborative ways of working.
So what is Community Wealth Building in action? What does it mean for local people? Come and find out!
