| Event Name: | Where Will the Big Society Happen |
| Description: | The utopian Big Society vision now needs to take concrete form, but where will the promised civic flourishing actually take place? What kind of buildings do its builders need? What meeting places, halls or facilities strengthen social cohesion and promote enterprise? In the age of dynamic networks and electronic exchange, is the social role of architecture and the built environment diminished? Does the Big Society need buildings at all?
Using urban and rural case studies from the Churches Conservation Trust’s Regeneration Task Force, its Chair Loyd Grossman argues that historic churches are the perfect place for the Big Society to meet: liminal, iconic and at the heart of our cities, towns and villages. |
