The Owning Our Future report was unveiled at Scottish Parliament on the 26th of April 2022. The report brings together research and insights from the Owning Our Future project, where at the end of 2020, creative practitioners worked in five communities across Scotland. They employed different creative techniques to discover why the community ownership model was so important in how communities responded during the COVID-19 pandemic and how they will build forward better.

I’m very proud to have created the illustrations for the front cover and inside the report (and to be one of the practitioners during the project). I hope it offers inspiration to other towns and cities who are considering community ownership of land and assets.

The report can be viewed in full here.
