Lessons Learnt from Cohort 1

Description:

Following on from the series of blog posts that we published at the start of August 2020, we hosted this webinar, where a panel of experts discussed key findings and outcomes from their work reviewing the Town Investment Plans submitted by the Cohort 1 towns.
