This is Episode #100 of the #RadicalReformers podcast!
 
We wanted to take the opportunity to thank all the guests who have taken the time to contribute their time and knowledge and the listeners who have given up their own time and continued to support the podcast since the first episode back in 2020. We have had guests from central government, local government, the third sector, Mayoral Combined Authorities and the NHS, all brimming with energy and ideas for improving public services. It’s been a great journey and we hope you have enjoyed it and learned as much as we have.
 
So back to this episode! This is part 2 of a public service reform double bill. The first one was on “relational practice” and if you missed it you can catch up in the usual places. 

This one revolves around a report that the Mutual Ventures team developed in partnership with Re:State think tank on behalf of the LGA entitled “Trusting Place”. As the name suggests, this is all about place working, public service collaboration at a local level, and connection between public services and citizens. As part of this work, we ran a series of workshops and spoke to a lot of public service leaders and thinkers and produced a set of recommendations for the LGA to consider in terms of what their future views might be around place-working.
 
This report has now been published (Link below) and we are fortunate to have the chance to discuss it on this episode with Eve Roodhouse from the LGA and two of the report’s authors Simon Kay from Re:State and MV Non-Exec Director Professor Donna Hall.
