Lunch in @CinnamonClub. I looked over my left shoulder and found a copy of Great Expectations - one of my all-time favourites! “We give him the name of Pip… and we hoped he might grow a little bit like you, and we think he do”

"In the private sector, decisions are made with due diligence but quickly. Stakeholders align, mobilise and move projects forward apace. Usually, there is a financial imperative to do so. Public sector structures often hinder progress. Siloed working, capacity constraints and a culture of caution often slow progress. With local government reform on the horizon, we can't afford to wait..." @themjcouk @LP_AdeleG localpartnerships.gov.uk/202…
