Join the Tediophobes and friends as we recreate the Firehouse Salon that Howard Gossage ran with his gang in the 1960s.

In this second edition we bring together inspiring speakers to discuss the work of EF Schumacher and debate the idea that growth is an essential part of the global economy. This leads us onto discussion and examples of how thinking small and local can lead to big things.
