What if a local community could step inside the future of its neighbourhood and shape it together?

In this talk, Jessica Warren (Hoffmann) will share how Future Places Toolkit, a Bristol-based social venture, is reimagining planning consultation by combining immersive technology with expert facilitation to help communities, planners and built-environment professionals shape places together. 

She will discuss a recent collaboration with Bristol City Council, using arts, culture and immersive technology to explore neighbourhood visioning in South Bristol. She will explore the company’s approach to enabling more diverse communities to meaningfully participate in local placemaking and decision-making.
