Walking about in King's Cross
Apologies, I posted the wrong venue for the consultation event on 27 November. It's not at the Canal Museum, it's at York Way Community Centre, Tiber Gardens (access via York Way Court, off Copenhagen Street), London N1 0XF.
Also, I have just been emailed by a neighbour who has had her request to attend refused on the grounds that this 'is a targeted event' . A full public consultation will take place in Spring next year. So, for the time being the shortcomings of the first event with its very surprisingly small number of community based representatives and its two hour timeslot remain… Great gig this – run a couple of short events packed with consultants but lacking a representative sample of the community, use a few off-the shelf participative processes, present it all back to your client in fast turn-around glossy report form and wait for the huge invoice to be paid. As I consultant myself I'm often left feeling ashamed of my colleagues out there………
