This one day event, including interactive workshops, presentations and discussions, is the culmination of two years research by Dr Helen Holmes, University of Manchester, exploring ‘being thrifty’.

It brings together provisioning organisations, academics, policymakers and interested members of the public to discuss how third sector organisations are tackling social inequalities and environmental challenges, and to provide good practice guidance for moving forward.

For the full programme of events during the day please see the timetable

This event is funded jointly by the University of Manchester: Hallsworth Endowment Fund, Morgan Centre for Research into Everyday Lives, and an Engaging Our Communities Award.
