Speaker: Cllr Geoff Hill, Deputy Leader Local Independents and Cabinet member for Highways and Transport, Customer Service Centre and Employment The Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead



The Thames Valley great is delighted to welcome Councillor Geoff Hill who is Deputy Leader Local Independents and Cabinet member for Highways and Transport, Customer Service Centre and Employment.



Councillor Hill will provide an update & a presentation on the new Maidenhead cycle routes now the public consultants are fully completed with settled designs.

Cyclists in Maidenhead now have a dedicated new 1.3km cycle route, making healthy active travel across the town safer and more convenient, thanks to the completion of the £2.8m Missing Links route. 

The Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead has constructed the new route in phases, with the final part focused on upgraded paths, a new bridge, landscaping, and signs at Town Moor. The whole route connects current and future residential areas in the north with the town centre and railway station to the south. Pedestrians can also use it.



The overall scheme, mostly funded by government’s Local Growth Fund through the Berkshire Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP), includes improvements at a number of key locations to help people transition to cycling or walking for shorter journeys, supporting the council’s work to tackle climate change. 

The council would like the route to be adopted into the National Cycle Network in due course.

Speaker: Various speakers

We live and work in a volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) world and as such, pressures on business models are seeing rapid change, with innovations dismantling traditional operations before our very eyes. Along with a challenging labour market, the employer value proposition is looking very different than it did prior to the pandemic.

This industry sector and education round table event, looks at generating the views of supply chain organisations on what skills and knowledge they require from today’s graduates, for the logistician of tomorrow. With an understanding of what industry is looking for in their workforce of tomorrow, education can shape the curriculum, providing graduates with the right knowledge and skills sets that organisations can immediately capitalise upon.

The age of business transformation is now upon us, as the world of the 21st century adapts to the latest wave of technology and innovation, we are only just beginning to understand the disruptive nature of this new technology for example, AI and the Metaverse. Through collaboration and partnerships with industry, education can better understand what the ‘real impact’ of technology  in the workplace, and what industry needs to shape the workforce of the future.

Come and join the Supply Chain team here at Anglia Ruskin University, to share your views and thoughts of how your business, and the sector will evolve as we continue through the 21st century.
