Proud to have been part of the Time to Listen event in Stockton — part of Active Stockton: Communities on the Move, a Sport England Place Partnership. A powerful reminder of the value in slowing down to genuinely hear from communities.
The conversations were honest, reflective, and grounded in lived experience. It wasn’t just about what we do, but how we work together to enable lasting change.
There’s real power in creating safe spaces for listening — and this event embodied that.
A special mention to Urban Kaos and the incredible children who opened the event with such energy and joy — a powerful way to set the tone for the day.
Looking forward to building on what we heard and continuing to centre community voice in everything we do.
