It’s 2014, and I’m sitting in the café of the new and iconic Birmingham City library in the English Midlands, chewing the fat over cups of tea and coffee with Jane (not her real name). She’s the outgoing chief executive of a social enterprise that delivers community health and care provision to the most deprived parts of the city.
