Description

In this episode, we look at how the city trying to compete for business and rapid economic growth - is also the city where a focus on health & wellbeing is helping it to stand out in the 21st century
 
And we try to answer the following questions:
 
  • Is Brighton & Hove's lens of health and wellbeing a privilege of the comfortable middle classess or a genuine philosophy that makes the city stand out?
  • What makes a healthy city?
  • What do innovation cultures in healthcare and education say about Brighton & Hove?
  • Can Brighton & Hove contain a slice of London's hustle culture whilst also rejecting burnout?
  • What is it about the sea?
