22 May: Building back better

Local Government: In Conversation

How is our thinking changing and our focus shifting as we move along the pandemic curve? We hear from Cllr Abi Brown, the Leader of Stoke-on-Trent City Council about the importance of thinking space and the challenges of response and recovery. We also hear from a husband and wife who lived through ebola epidemic in Sierra Leone. They tell us how what it felt like to emerge from an epidemic and provide insight into whether it's possible to return to a new normal that builds on the lessons we've learned in the pandemic.
