Many factors affect the environment, including architecture, transport, access to green spaces, cohesion, culture, quality of services like health and education and so on. For this series, we have chosen three factors that are arguably among the most important: safety and security, fairness and economic prosperity. Each of these themes is being introduced by a distinguished local speaker with relevant experience and responsibility, followed by general discussion.<\/p>\n<p>Tel: 0114 2709907\u00a0 <a href=\"mailto:email:office@wordpress-1151684-4277157.cloudwaysapps.com\">email:office@wordpress-1151684-4277157.cloudwaysapps.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?via=TheologyUnion\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tomorrow!
