Project Power
The People Power Project focused on understanding why community-led spaces like Spacemakers matter, and how local people can shape and protect the places they care about.
Through conversations, reflection, and shared experiences, the project explored the social value of public spaces in Hartcliffe and the role that residents, volunteers, and young people play in keeping them active, welcoming, and relevant. The work helped reinforce the idea that long-term change comes from local voices being heard and involved.
