This webinar explored how businesses and charities across the country are responding to the coronavirus crisis to help the most vulnerable in society continue to access the goods and services they need.
The future is uncertain and recovery will be tough. It’s difficult to make projections about what the policy landscape will look like, what the wider economic trends will be and what will happen to different groups of people.

Listen back to hear:

- How a new approach to real-time analytics can support councils with their economic and social recovery plan
- What our new future modelling analysis is predicting for both household and council finances
