The P&WA is a forum for stakeholders to share resources, ideas and lessons learned.

It first convened in December 2016.

It has enabled an equal and ongoing partnership approach to joint implementation and improvement of the Place Standard tool.

This enables the ongoing delivery, appraisal, and improvement of place-based working.

Membership is free and open to anyone representing an organisation with an interest in improving the places in which we live, learn and work.
