Podcast series – Weathering the storm: Episode 4 with Jon Franklin and Claire McCarthy-Reed

June 15, 2020Cat

This podcast continues our series ‘weathering the storm’.

The session is hosted by Nick Sinclair with special guests Jon Franklin and Claire McCarthy-Reed from the Local Area Coordination team in Swansea, Wales.

Jon and Claire talk about the team’s response to the pandemic, including the introduction of temporary staff and being guided by the Local Area Coordination principles. They also share insights from the community about the difference it has made having Local Area Coordination in Swansea compared with other areas that don’t have it.

“Taking time, listening, connecting, building relationships…that’s what we’re all about”
