A Conversation About Losing Control
This podcast was recorded by a small group of people invited by Barnwood Trust to attend 2019’s Losing Control in Birmingham – a coming together of individuals, organisations, businesses and foundations from across the country, all searching for new ways top implement social change by relinquishing some control in favour of collective decision-making and grassroots participation.
