You will hear practical examples from councils that are just doing it - in partnership
with local businesses, the police and health professionals. You will experience the highs,
lows and ultimate successes of places as varied as Chelmsford, Newquay, and
Westminster; as well as the work that the gambling and alcohol industries can do to
improve the commercial success of an area. Every local area requires its own solution
and you will have a chance to attend two afternoon workshops that will explore what
options might be suitable for your local economy – whether it is a purple flag award,
best bar none scheme or elements of all the options on offer.
