Hywel Dda University Health Board moved groups of staff into the Hywel Dda Integrated Care Centres (ICC) at Aberaeron and Cardigan. Following the move, Hywel Dda University Health Board invited an Anthropologist, Dr Luci Attala, Trinity St David, to undertake a study to look at how employees have negotiated the transition from traditional workspaces to an open-plan hot-desk environment in non-clinical areas.

The event will share the report’s findings and recommendations, as well as suggesting some ideas on ways to assist towns to analyse their present and forge their futures.

Also featured will be Professor Karel Williams of Manchester University, an economist who has researched the foundational economy and will be sharing the findings of his recent review of three towns in Wales. Ian Williams of the Welsh Government will also return to share his perspective and response to the study report.
