Street-to-Scale – learning from trust based funding for citizen action – Matt Bell + Michael Little (Zoom)

Watch the recording from our session on this pioneering experimental method for building connection, trust and social connection in communities - being tested around the UK.

10 Jun 2020
12:30 – 13:30

Watch back our session on Street-to-Scale, an experimental method for building connection, trust and social connection in communities. Citizens come together to spend small amounts of money to improve their home neighbourhoods. Street-to-Scale provides the banking and communication infrastructure, and measures impact on social networks and trust.

The innovation is the brainchild of a group of young people working with social entrepreneur Charlie Howard and Ratio, a centre for design and learning. Plymouth Octopus Project is one of several organisations around the U.K. testing of Street-to-Scale in different contexts.

The webinar covered:

  • the history and design elements of the model
  • the lessons gained so far, including abandoned prototypes, and
  • the opportunities for and barriers to scale.

This Zoom is organised by the Q community’s Reimagining Health and Care’ Special Interest Group (all welcome to join).
