Scotland’s Towns Conference 2021

Focus

Since the publication of the original “Fraser Review” of town centre policy in 2013, the policy landscape has changed significantly. From the Community Empowerment Act to Brexit, from City & Region deals to the recent Programme for Government, all have had an impact on town centre policy and practice.

Scotland’s Towns Conference 2021 will focus on Greater, Greener, Fairer: A New Future for Scotland’s Towns and discuss key recommendations from the Town Centre Action Plan Review group (www.futuretowns.scot). The conference will be grounded by core sessions on:

1) Policy, Planning, Place,

2) Financing, and,

3) Delivering.
