TEDx Bath is a brand new initiative set-up as part of the global TED organisation, and aims to share ideas and issues that relate to the local community.
Its activities are being coordinated by a team of volunteers who are united by a desire to share ideas and encourage positive change.
Lead Organiser Rhodora Baguilat said: “TEDx Bath is for everyone and anyone who is interested and enthusiastic about ideas for the future of Bath and its community, both now and in future.
“We hope people from all backgrounds and walks of life in Bath will come together and join us at our first event to share and explore new ideas.”
Curation Lead Geoff Rich said: “We have assembled a brilliant line-up of speakers for our inaugural event, and will be exploring a broad range of important topics including social welfare, mobility, mental health, and the future role and character of our city.
“It promises to be a really momentous day for Bath and we hope it will kick-start a brand new and inclusive debate about the future of our community and city.”
