Post-Its, you say..?
Final Fulford reminder - get some fresh air at the Fulford Show tomorrow and come talk with me about what you want a future Fulford to be like, and how Fulford Social hall could be part of making that happen. There will be Post-Its! fulfordshow.org.uk/

Yorkies may recall @my_futureyork arranged a @CityScreenYork showing of Citizen Jane years ago - the reason being she came out with so much plain truth like this. @yorkcivictrust @YorkCycle

Last call for tomorrow's @CommunityYoco @Demos Ideas into Plans workshop with help from our pals at @CoachingYork! YoCo's draft community plan is on screen and - tho I may be biased - it looks pretty damn good. Come along & help us shape a final version - eventbrite.co.uk/e/turning-i…

For all whose spring was cheered by the @CommunityYoco screenings of @lifesizedcity - now's your chance to cheer autumn by taking part in our collaboration with @demos to crowdsource a community plan for (a Life Sized) York Central - Saturday's the launch! yoco.uk/get-involved/evjfz2g…

Should we be running a workshop event about what carbon neutral actually *is* (and how we might re-shape the masterplan to get there) as part of our upcoming @CommunityYoco @Demos Combined Choice public engagement project? @my_futureyork @yorkcivictrust

Have been having conversations around @my_futureyork & how designers might better narrate the process of design to involve communities more. Thought I should roadtest these ideas, so I blogged one of my projects - constructiveindividuals.co.u…

Previous @CommunityYoco @my_futureyork participants have had a head start so it's going public - a Life Sized City bonus screening & conversation, mixing Medellin with increasingly rich & focused discussion of #YorkCentral & community-led good stuff - eventbrite.co.uk/e/life-size…

This is all true - echoes of the @my_futureyork quest on Piccadilly for what would make The Best Bus Stop In York
"It's a small piece of real estate, but if designed properly, the stop sign can provide riders with enough information to assure them that they're at least waiting at the right place, for the right route, in the right direction." #citylabarchive trib.al/2UVEhup

Blog! Nice reflection by @imeldahavers inspired by the @CommunityYoco @my_futureyork Life Sized City screening & conversation, looking at the role of food in bringing communities together, how this was part of @RedTowerYork1 & how it can inspire #YorkCentral

Helen and Phil from @my_futureyork are out walking today to better understand York from the villages. We spend a lot of time talking about the city centre, but what’s York like from the perspective of those who live in Haxby, Wheldrake or Dunnington? yorkdesignweek.com/programme…
As part of @yorkdesignweek we're going From Democratic Desire to Communicating for Change. No-one wants *more* traffic; can we use this shared desire as a basis for a communications campaign that will reduce car use & allow us to rethink our public spaces? yorkdesignweek.com/programme…
