I feel incredibly lucky to have been part of such a fantastic team! Great to read Irene's reflections on the three years of work on the Shaping Places for Wellbeing Programme. So much learning is shared on the webpages, worth a look!
What a journey!!

My reflections on more than THREE years of learning and creating tools to support anyone looking to implement a place based approach.

So many thanks to ALL who have contributed to this legacy of support that can now be applied for years to come!
