Space to Think Events
A Space to Think brings together diverse groups of people – social and community activists, Community Organisers, third sector and civil society organisations, people who aren’t part of any formal group, and policy makers at Borough and London-wide levels – to discuss some of the current topics and concerns that Londoners face.
High Trees have held Space to Think events on various issues. This has including supporting Black Thrive in facilitating a discussion around the over representation of Black people in mental health services within Lambeth, this discussion itself identified school exclusions as a widely held concern among the participants, which led to a further Space to Think event to explore the issue further and look at what possible solutions could look like. Another example of this work was a Space to Think event held Latin American women, to consider the issues the Latin American women and parents face in London.
Space to Think events are a excellent and participatory tool to allow a collaborative environment which brings together communities and decision makers to tackle issues. High Trees have used visual minutes and for some events produced short films to capture the events and their outcomes, which have worked well alongside written reports.
