OM DENNE EPISODE
From a Liverpudlian pie shop reviving abandoned streets to a Welsh village reclaiming a radical past. From ‘citizen scientists’ exposing the slow death of the river Wye to activists resisting the loss of London’s queer spaces. Now Here tells stories of people fighting back.
These very different landscapes share common threads. At their heart is a question: how can we rethink our relationship with the land and each other? We cross the UK to find out how ordinary people are making a new kind of future. One that isn’t a distant utopia. One that’s here, now.

Miners’ Institutes used to be the centre of every village across the South Wales coalfield. Paid for and built by the miners themselves, they were a place to organise, to meet and to learn.
