The Brighton Paradox: FOOTBALL & FOOD
Update: 2023-02-20
Description
In this episode, we look at how the city that has a top 10 premier league football team, award-winning food culture and decades of environmental innovation - is also a city unsure of its global identity, of abject food poverty and congested streets piled high with rubbish
And we try to answer the following questions:
- What impact has Brighton & Hove Albion FC had on the city's reputation?
- Should a football club also be a driver of social impact?
- Is food putting Brighton on the map?
- Can activism also drive economic opportunity?
- What happens in an emergency, when the infrastructure is joined-up?
