Series two: Recovery and renewal

As the pandemic hit in March 2020, the Heseltine Institute sprang into action, producing more than 40 policy briefings over the subsequent 18 months, with the aim of supporting and informing policy makers, civil servants, researchers and practitioners, as we all grappled with the impact of COVID-19. But while the original run had a wide focus on the immediate impact of the pandemic, the second series of Heseltine Institute policy briefings, 'Recovery and renewal', was aimed squarely at supporting Liverpool City Region (LCR), and those like it, by offering specialist insight that could help shape recovery.
