Active Communities Programme

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT AND ENGAGEMENT

Client: People’s Health Trust

In 2018, WSA Community Consultants once again worked with the People’s Health Trust, in partnership with Sian Penner Associates, to provide development support.

This involved supporting community groups and communities of interest in understanding the values and outcomes of the Active Communities Programme and supporting them to translate their ideas into funding applications that meet the criteria and address the outcomes of the programme.

We supported numerous areas this year, including HealthLives (specifically Redbridge and Barking & Dagenham), HealthWisdom (Southwark and Lewisham) and HealthConfirm (HealthConfirm (Reading / Berkshire). We are happy that some of those we supported have now received funding.

This work includes outreach to identify community groups in specific boroughs and direct support to groups.
