An inspiring conference as always with @VHSComms #WeAreHealthCreators - panel and discussion about #loneliness and isolation. Audience warmed up to engage....
Interesting theme of agency: individual people have agency to take action to make change at today's #StrongerThings conference. Prof Bola Owolabi NHS England recruiting citizens from the most excluded diverse backgrounds to repeat health improvement messages in their communities.
Very excited to be at the @wearenewlocal #StrongerThings Conference at the Guild Hall. So many workshops, potential learning and making connections at the oldest civic hall in the UK c.1411.
