I really enjoyed writing this one about the Good Ship @PortlandWorks, a shining example of community ownership in action. Such a pleasure to have been part of that journey. Great to talk to those involved, including tenants @locksleystill and @shhmakers nowthenmagazine.com/articles…

“It’s magic, it really is”: Portland Works celebrates ten years of community ownership

Saved from redevelopment by the community, the unique and historic Sheffield complex continues to thrive as a hub of activity for all kinds of makers and doers.
