Ken Perry. "The roots that come from Liverpool's community base are really, really strong and people have got a real clear view of what's right and what's wrong. Inequality, particularly in terms of health and housing, is something Liverpool feels particularly strong about. It's got a long heritage of tackling those issues and, right up to the present day, Liverpool is leading the way in terms of recreating its neighbourhoods and ensuring good quality of life for everybody."
Social innovator Ken Perry is Chief Executive of Plus Dane Group, the pioneering social landlord that has redefined its role from being a housing provider to neighbourhood investor. Years in housing and regeneration convinced Ken that creating sustainable communities is about more than bricks and mortar - it requires a radical rethink in the way opportunities are created for local people to become directly involved in the future of their own communities.
