Work Local, Save High Street, Save Life
Our vision for 2025 is to encourage a new way of living through the transformation of existing suburban commuting hubs into community hubs with shared office facilities where most work can be done away from the city centre. We call this Work Local. This strategy is environmentally friendly and cost-effective since it leverages existing transport infrastructures. Furthermore, a thriving local working population will in turn Save High Street.
Our ultimate goal is to Save Life by improving physical and mental health of the working population, bringing jobs and wealth back to the local community, and achieving carbon-negative via reduction in fossil-fueled commuting, extensive use of renewable energy and generous provision of green space.
