little hoodrat friend.....

Okay, so the blog was wrong. This month's session will not feature Richard Leafe of Natural England, it will instead welcome Neil McInroy of CLES (Centre for Local Economic Strategies). He will be discussing 'the creative class and the knowledge economy, and the problems old industrial cities like Manchester face'....or, as the scandal-mongering mavens of the Last Thursday Club would have it 'Hoodies and ASBOs: A lost generation?' So buff up your kickers and stay out of the Trafford Centre, please, we'll see you on Thursday 31st May. Yup, the blog was wrong about that too. Oops.

Well, I'm just about recovered from a surfeit of chocolate, not to mention a huge pile of butties at last week's LTC. According to the schedule (see below), next month's session will be graced by Richard Leafe, Regional Director of Natural England. Impress him, or terrify him, with your encyclopedic knowledge by checking out this piece in advance.......
