The best of humanity...
The People's Powerhouse teams up with Northern Soul to share GOOD news
The People’s Powerhouse and Northern Soul are partnering to share good news stories about businesses, people and communities coming together in the North of England and showing us the best of humanity during the COVID-19 crisis.
We've heard so many examples of people showing great kindness and compassion and we think that these stories deserve to be shared far and wide. If you have a story of an organisation or community stepping up or adapting their work to help others during this time then we want to hear from you.
Let's bring a little sprinkle of joy to people’s news feed and show the world how great Northerners really are, especially in challenging times.

Family Activity Pack
We love the North, the people, the places and the communities. What better way to celebrate our cities, towns, villages, hamlets and more, than to talk about what we love about them the most.
The People’s Powerhouse team have developed a pack of activities you can do as a family, to express how you feel about where you live in a time where we are unable to enjoy our communities fully.
Download the pack and email us your completed activities so we can share your wonderful creations.
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!
