The Regional Democracy Think Tank for West Yorkshire

Tracking page for A warm, healthy and climate friendly home for everyone in West Yorkshire

We are tracking developments from the year-long alternative manifesto process (AMPlify West Yorkshire) that we hosted in 2020-21.

This page tracks A warm, healthy and climate friendly home for everyone in West Yorkshire by David Barns Andy Boyle Jamie Keats Neil McKenna David Nugent Kate Simpson Andy Walker Andrew Wilson.

It records what happens in West Yorkshire relevant to this idea, and to the same idea in other places, in order to compare and contrast with our region.
