Interests and expertise

I work with place leaders and managers to make better places. I provide research, guidance and support through the Institute of Place Management (IPM) and, more recently, in my position of Research Lead for the Government’s High Streets Task Force, and £8.7m programme of support for England’s high streets and town centres, led by the IPM at Manchester Met.

People make places. If we want our neighbourhoods, towns and cities to thrive then we have to develop the skills and capacity of local leaders in councils, businesses and the wider community. It is when people collaborate across sectors that real change happens
Cathy speaking on BBC You and Yours, December 2021
