Up My Street,
The podcast that explores the world of creative placemaking and the clever initiatives that are engaging people in the places they live, work and play.
We’ll be talking to the movers and shakers and trailblazers that help create spaces where people can come together, share their stories, and build relationships. The community builders, the designers, the forward thinkers.
This is the podcast where we change the world... or at least, our little corner of it.
Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Join us for our wonderful chat with Jamie Quince-Starkey discussing Down To Earth in Derby
We cover so many topis in this episode, here are just a few!
Our relationships with our home towns/cities.
Environmental and societal breakdown
Our relationship with nature.
How to reconnect people with nature, without alienating them!
Meeting likeminded people, letting the journey happen.
‘Growing potatoes in a bucket will change your life!’ – Jamie
How walks and allotment meet ups turned into talks, a film and taking over part of the city centre.
Making it simple and empowering, meeting people where they are.
The backstory for DTE – including how they got the backing of the Eden Project.
There is so much positivity and infectious enthusiasm in this episode, I defy anyone to listen and not want to make the world a better place. Even the smallest of actions matter, and they count.
Thank you Jamie, we cannot wait to hear more about the evolution of DTE in the future. Watch this space.
