Bex Trevalyan is a social entrepreneur and co-founder of Library of Things — a UK-wide network that lets people borrow useful items instead of buying them — and Platform Places, a movement unlocking empty high-street buildings for community use.



In this episode, Bex joins Dave Erasmus to discuss how sharing can build stronger, more connected communities — and why the future of place might lie in collaboration rather than consumption.



From her childhood love of mud pies in rural Lancashire to reshaping London’s high streets, Bex reflects on how our relationship with stuff, space and one another can transform the places we live. Together, they explore what happens when local people are given the tools to create change, and how small, shared acts can spark wider social impact.
