About us
We believe that the people are the North’s true powerhouse and our diversity is our strength.
We want every northerner to be heard so that they can influence the changes they want to see.
We bring northerners together so that they can decide what the future of the north should look like.
We listen, deliberate and decide together so that everyone’s voice is heard by those with influence and to encourage them to be the best they can be to create change.
Together, we are a movement for change for individuals, communities, businesses and services.
The North is what brings us together. It is our pride and diversity is our strength. Our togetherness brings us courage to speak truth to power.
We strive to improve the lives of all people living in northern England. And it’s time to do things differently, to move forward together on our terms.
If you don’t say it, it can’t be heard. We’re here to ensure what you want to say is heard.
Why People's Powerhouse?
The People’s Powerhouse is a movement which exists to shape the debate around the Northern Powerhouse, to ensure that people and communities are at the heart of the Powerhouse plans, not the periphery!
The movement formed in response to the lack of women participating in a conference in Manchester, drawing attention to the lack of diverse opinions and experiences represented in the Northern Powerhouse plans.
Our aim is to include the thoughts and opinions, as well as knowledge and expertise from all sectors of society, with a particular focus on how people are the key to meaningful development!
That means you!
We’ve already started to change the conversation about what kind of North we want to be, but the more of us who get involved, the more we will achieve!
