A collective of social entrepreneurs, activists, policy-makers and social thinkers convened at RebootBritain on July 6th to discuss the challenges and opportunities currently facing the country. Organized by the UK-based National Endowment for Science, Technology and the Arts (NESTA), the public event included an activity in which participants were challenged with developing their own idea of what would help to reboot Britain using LEGO bricks.

Based on the notion that building with the hands inspires different ways of thinking, the exercise generated a collection of playful, yet significant images to inspire dialogue and action, arguably applicable to more than just Britain.
