Rusholme Community Conversation for Health & Well-being

Don't worry if you missed the fantastic 1st Rusholme Community Conversation for Health and Well-being, attached are some slides from the great work done by agencies and residents.

The next Community Conversation is Thursday 26th March 10am – 12 noon at Trinity House Community Resource Centre.

The second community conversation will continue to prioritise the most important influences on health & well-being by thinking about the potential impact and ease of implementation. This will identify ‘quick-wins’ that could be delivered through existing projects and partners, and actions that require more planning and resources. Then partners will identify Rusholme’s current assets including the expertise, knowledge and skills of partners and physical spaces in the neighbourhood. 

The third community conversation will identify the first and next steps for a healthier Rusholme.
