Derby City Local Area Coordination Programme Expanding!
Well done to everyone in Derby – great to hear that following some very promising outcomes in the first 12 months, they are about to start recruiting more Local Area Coordinators.
This links with the vision for helping people stay strong and connected and finding local (non service) ways for building a good life and dealing with challenges and problems.
Also great emerging conversations and leadership across service types – building a shared vision and more integrated services
Cumbria Local Area Coordinators Sharing Ideas, Experiences and Learning.
Over the last 2 weeks, I was really excited to spend 2 days with the Local Area Coordination Team in Cumbria as part of a shared learning .
It was great to meet everyone, hear the stories, share ideas/experiences/learning and also work together to think about overcoming challenges.
