We're seeking a #development #consultancy consortium to lead on a once-in-a-century opportunity to reimagine #Cambridge’s Market Square, Guildhall, and Corn Exchange to create a new #CivicQuarter for the city.
The estimated contract value is £1,250,000, and the successful consortium will be required to produce commercial proposals and corresponding RIBA stage 2 design that meets the council’s core objectives for the project.
The deadline for tender submissions is 21 March 2024: cambridge.gov.uk/news/2024/0…

Great to see more place based investment funds to drive local social and environmental impact. I hope these come with well thought through market building activity. These businesses need quick and commuted market access

"This is going to have to be resisted on the streets, through campaigns and through industrial action. We can’t do that alone. We need everyone with us."

Just played the @FinancialTimes Climate Game to see if I could cut emissions to zero by 2050. Some big decisions are needed urgently to get us back on course.
Can you make the tough decisions needed to save our planet? 🌎 ig.ft.com/climate-game/

Inequality is a pernicious trap; the worse off in our society have to pay more to access basic serivces. We call this the #PovertyPremium - watch this helpful 1 min explainer from @FairByDesign to find out why that happens & how we can solve it together 👇👇👇👇👇
⚠️New, 1 minute watch📺
Sometimes, we choose to pay more: for quality, for service. This feels fair: paying more to get more.
But what if you have to pay more for the same essentials? Like energy, insurance, or credit?
This is the #PovertyPremium 👇

We're making the most of agile working - but instead of buying new equipment for working at home, we're recycling and reusing existing office equipment. We've helped 423 employees utilise 1150 pieces of existing office equipment in their home offices! #OrbitEarth #WorkSmart
Inspired by @cip_impact Xmas present from @ChangePlease we have permanently converted our home caffeine hit to Lucy’s and Tom’s Blend and a Ethiopia Single Origin. #buysocial #buygreatcoffee
