Feels like a poem to Local Government. Think I’ll make posters of it. “the primary goal of a local public servant is to maximise the joy that people in that place derive from their lives”. Thank you @clutton_evie !

Great to meet the team. Looks like there are several exciting opportunities to collaborate, better serve the people of Cornwall and pay it forward by sharing what we learn with the whole sector.
The #LocalDigital team had a great day at @CornwallCouncil, one of the #FutureCouncils pilot cohort.
Beyond indulging in Cornish pasties and cream teas, they discussed problem statements and the challenges faced by service areas.

We were asked to be part of the "Take Up Space" event organised by @SpaceCornwall. We jumped in, built a pallet bar for our Curious Cocktails and created an activity to make a touch-sensor spinning artwork! It was a busy old day, with 400 people at this Girls in STEM event!
Is there a remote control?
My Christmas jumper arrived today. Planning ahead. Didn't want to miss out like I did last year. Thanks @Jimllpaintit

If I’d gone home after this first talk I would have got good value for the conference fee. Rest of the talks, workshops and chats in the breaks were effectively for free and also excellent.
One of my favourite talks of #aotb2023. Definitely go for the replay video when it comes out if you missed this one.
