We were pleased to attend Centre for London’s panel event back in November of last year on new research exploring what affects the wellbeing of Londoners, and how public policy can help improve it.

The event, held in partnership with the Mile End Institute brought together a range of experts and policymakers to respond to the findings and discuss the way forward.

Our Co-Founder and Director, Chloe Schendel-Wilson, was pleased to be invited to speak on the panel, alongside leaders from across public policy, health, and Local Government. The discussion explored key themes such as social cohesion, workplace autonomy, health, and access to leisure, and how these factors vary across different groups of Londoners.

The event highlighted the importance of inclusive policymaking that recognises the diverse experiences of people living in the capital.

We’re proud to have been part of this important conversation and look forward to continuing the work of making wellbeing a central focus in local and regional decision-making.

Thank you to the organisers, fellow panellists, and attendees for a thoughtful and engaging event.
