S1 Ep 4: Anthony Downs | Charrettes: generating trust through community engagement

Anthony Downs, Estate Director at Hatfield Park in Hertfordshire, and KOR's Managing Director Annette Richman, discuss the need for estates to engage with their local communities.
The word charrette is derived from old French to describe how students of architecture were invited to throw their ideas into a charrette, French for cart or chariot.
Anthony, who has been at Hatfield Park for 24 years, helped to pioneer charrettes as a way of bringing communities together to debate and discuss local issues and identify opportunities to solve them collaboratively.
