Our evaluation of the The Well Centre, a primary care service for 11-21 year olds, presents a worked example of what a ‘neighbourhood health service’ could look like for young people and discusses some of the challenges to get this right, and why it is important to try. ayph.org.uk/well-centre/
Delivering an innovative model of holistic primary care to young people through the Well Centre, an evaluation of the model.
Loved that potted history of Camden - never knew there was a William before the Earl! Thanks for sharing
That's beautiful, Rachel. Such a signal to the children that resilience can be found in the people and things around us, that we can navigate to when we need them. Can't say that enough times.
Look at that shift away from early intervention and towards crisis in children's services. We've removed help from families that might prevent crises, and are spending more and more on residential care for children often in real difficulties.
A depressing read for someone who thinks libraries and other public goods, help strengthen communities. We'll publish a @whatworksgrowth.bsky.socialwww.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Sending thanks from a London local government nerd who has now settled in with a cup of tea to read this for the next hour! Never knew the original review boundary extended so far into Hertfordshire.
'The Royal Commission on Local Government in Greater London 1957-60'. Lots of maps and details for all you local government nerds ... alondoninheritance.com/london-books...
The Royal Commission on Local Government in Greater London 1957-60 paved the way for the Greater London Council. Many of the themes in the report are the same today, as they were over 60 years ago.
Holiday read. Loved Tyson's first book and his second is just as good. Story, relation, invitation to seeing the world through different lenses. It shouldn't work as a book. But it does. Recommended.
