think and do tank realising progressive economics for people and place. Our aim
is to achieve social justice, good local economies and effective public
services for everyone, everywhere.
It is an exciting time to join the CLES team. Given the
current political and economic climate, and with the devolution process
unfolding on our doorstep here in Manchester, our work and progressive stance
has taken on a new significance and urgency. We are also undergoing a
rebranding exercise to better reflect our position and diverse expertise while
serving our growing audiences.
