Leaders Meetings

 

The Core Cities exist because the elected leaders of the local authorities in our cities chose to come together across political lines and speak with one voice on the joint issues facing them.

 

The Core Cities therefore directly represents our cities, and is accountable to it's elected leaders for our work and actions.  We hold regular meetings to update leaders with our current work, and to receive strategic direction from them about where they would like the group to focus.

 

As part of these meetings we regularly invite high profile guests from across the government and in the private and public sectors to enhance discussion and provide expert insight.
