The Connecting for Good ecosystem is alive with action and it’s growing every day.
From grassroots campaigns to creative movements, this is about people coming together to lead change in Coventry.
Here’s what’s happening right now and how you can get involved.
Introducing Our Core Team
Meet Mel, Ade, Amandeep, Neil, Emmanuelle and Rose. They’re the connectors and strategists who hold the space for the ecosystem to grow.

We asked them:
“What change are you hoping this ecosystem work will bring to Coventry?”
