On the way back from Oxfordshire having spent the day in Kidlington with 18 local people and their candidate Local Area Coordinators. Community member involvement in LAC recruitment is key. Great to have so many younger people involved today esp (as well as nice lunch and chatting 😁)

At our Local Area Coordination Network gathering online today. 70 members currently in conversation about being "connected, but seperate" from formal services. Reflecting on the positioning of the approach - one foot in community, one in the "system". Bridging the gap!

Off to Darlington for our 2nd of 4 Asset Based workshops we're facilitating with their entire Adult Social Care team. I'm from Darlington & my mum and dad still live there so this opportunity has felt very close to home. Darlo is a fab town with many assets (including the Brick Train of course 🙂)
