in an Era of Change.

In an era defined by profound change - from economic upheaval to the erosion of old orders - many of our towns, cities, and regions are facing deep-seated challenges.

But beneath this instability lies a powerful counter-current: a groundswell of empowered leaders actively shaping a more hopeful future.

At Recurve, we know that delivering lasting change for people and places means bridging divides, recasting the stories we tell about our places, and inspiring new partnerships which unlock the finances needed to bend trajectories back towards prosperity.

Drawing on two decades of hard-won lessons from real-world successes and failures, we partner with pioneering leaders to turn opportunity into impact.
