Let’s Talk About Our Health From Conversation to Possibility

Since the launch of Rochdale For Generations to Come in May 2025, Our Future has been listening and engaging with people and organisations borough wide to understand the incredible work already happening, as well as the big ambitions that could shape its future. One way to engage is through the Let’s Talk series, which brings a mix of people together from different sectors around the themes that communities have shared are important to them, from health and homes to spaces, jobs and much more.

The second Let’s Talk About Our Health session took place on Wednesday 11th February at  The Flying Horse. Residents, business leaders, community organisers, charity founders, and health professionals came together for an evening of conversation as they discussed and explored ideas for two site plans, one an outdoor space and the other a three-floor community building. The conversation was full of energy, and optimism as people shared practical ideas about how these spaces could support wellbeing, learning and community life across the Rochdale borough.
