Online - A Fairer Start Local: how to support early years innovation in local authorities
@
In 2021, Nesta launched A Fairer Start Local: a long-term innovation partnership with three local authorities to develop, design and test ideas for how innovation could transform early years services. Four years on, they’ve learned a lot about how innovation support from organisations like Nesta can best amplify the capabilities within local authorities, and improve outcomes for children and families.
Join them online on 24 April from 12:00-13:00 as they mark the publication of our Fairer Start Local report. There will be a discussion with leaders from the local authorities Nesta partnered with: Stockport and Greater Manchester, Leeds and York. Together they will share insights on what works to innovate and improve outcomes in early years systems.
This online event is ideal for anyone interested in innovation for local services, especially in the early years.
