We keep asking communities to shape their neighbourhoods. But who is investing in their ability to do so? My new LPIP Policy Brief, published with City-REDI at the University of Birmingham, introduces a framework for building civic capability across the life course. Read more: tinyurl.com/yxhyz7wn

I’ve published a new policy brief with Heseltine Institute exploring a simple idea: what if we took civic capability more seriously? Not just services for people - but the ability of people to participate, organise, lead, and shape the places they live. Read it here 👇 tinyurl.com/mrv4hubc

Mark Swift introduces his new report “Dialling Up Democracy in the 21st Century: Pathways for Renewal”. Public trust in politics has collapsed — and it’s not just an institutional issue, but a social and psychological one. 👉https://ow.ly/yock50YvGlK www.youtube.com/watch?v=VMFJoIBz6cw

Grateful to @pioneerspost.bsky.social for publishing this piece. Procurement is still treated largely as a technical exercise, when it’s one of the most powerful levers we have to shape lives & places. If we’re serious about social value, we have to re-humanise it. tinyurl.com/3euxux29

Let’s wake the sleeping giant of social change: procurement

EXPERT INSIGHT: How and where public money is spent is too often regarded as a back-office procedure, rather than the frontline instrument of social change that it should be, says Mark Swift.

Only 5% of the NHS budget goes to prevention. To tackle rising costs and widening inequalities we must harness social investment to pump-prime a prevention-first agenda. Here’s my new brief with @james-wecic.bsky.social @livuniheseltine.bsky.social Read here 👉 www.liverpool.ac.uk/media/livacu...
