Loved this #RadicalReformers conversation with Elly De Decker from the The Bromley By Bow Centre. Elly describes what a local community centre can do when it’s providing holistic support focusing on wider determinants of health and wellbeing. The formal NHS cannot deliver health acting on it’s own - but services are still siloed and often not joined up from the perspective of the person being supported. Elly gave the example of there being no obvious connection between councils and primary care where she operates. For sure there are good intentions but it’s not filtering down to middle managers and the front line where it really matters. Elly asked the question - where does health begin and end?.. and concludes that at the minute we are too quick to rush to a medical solution of intervention. This is a theme which has come up in a number of #RadicalReformers podcast discussions. What is clear is that the formal system doesn’t value places like the Bromley By Bow Centre as it should. Community support should be a priority investment. The Team at MV are doing some work on “Radical Place Leadership” on trying to solve some of these challenges – get in touch of you would like to know more. As Elly days – “Assume it’s possible and keep it simple!” #intergration #radicalplaceleadership
“Assume it’s possible”. Find inspiration in the new Radical Reformers podcast episode with Elly De Decker 📢 In this week's episode, Andrew Laird talks to Elly about her inspiring journey from a high-profile national role as the England Director of the National Lottery Community Fund to an ultra-local community-centred one, as Chief Executive of the nationally renowned The Bromley By Bow Centre in East London. This episode gives a real insight in to the incredible support and services offered by the Bromley by Bow Centre. From health and wellbeing initiatives to employment and skills support, this community charity is truly making a difference, creating a physical environment and culture which is an “oasis” for local people to come to and get the help they need. But it doesn't stop there. With close collaboration with the NHS, as well as council adult social care and public health services, her role at the Centre gives Elly a unique perspective on what’s working and what’s not working in the current system. She sheds light on the untapped potential of addressing wider social determinants of health and highlights how these are not yet prioritised by the formal system despite the impact they have on preventing demand for expensive NHS interventions. Together, Andrew and Elly delve into the challenges of breaking down silos and fostering genuine collaboration, without which, organisations and services remain disjointed and people seeking support see no real difference. They also chat about the power of better data sharing for effective collaboration, allowing partners to target support, track their impact and create real change. Despite the hurdles, Elly's unwavering optimism shines through. Her mantra, ‘assume it's possible’, is a powerful reminder that we all have the ability to create positive change. Prepare to be inspired! ✨ Catch up on this thought-provoking conversation and unlock the potential for radical transformation in our communities: 🎧 https://lnkd.in/e3-csfGD #Podcast #RadicalReformers #NHS #LocalAuthority #PublicServiceReform #LocalCouncil #PublicServices #InnovationInPublicServices #CommunityImpact #CollaborationMatters

Strategic, Social Value, Sustainable Public Procurement Consultant. Innovation Management Policy Researcher. Interested in Socially Responsible Management and VCSE Access to public procurement
#SocialValue - Breckland’s Inspiring Communities programme is transforming lives – and won the LGC Award 2023 for Health and Social Care. The true measure of success lies beyond numbers and accolades. It’s in the stories of individuals whose lives have been transformed. It’s in the strengthened community spirit, the reduced burden on healthcare services, and the empowered residents taking charge of their wellbeing. Here are some key aspects that fuelled our success: Collaboration: we fostered strong partnerships with the NHS, charities, and community groups, ensuring a holistic and coordinated approach Community-led: we recognised the power of local knowledge and empowered communities to identify and address their unique needs Innovative solutions: we implemented pioneering initiatives like the community health workers and community connectors, addressing complex issues at their roots Targeted support: we focused on the most vulnerable, including those experiencing domestic abuse, isolation, and mental health challenges.

In a time where feeling disconnected is more common than we'd like to admit, Friends for Good are making significant progress in addressing loneliness with community services that genuinely create a positive impact: - Australian Loneliness Research Foundation: The Foundation collaborates with academics, community groups, and those with lived experiences of loneliness to conduct research and raise awareness about loneliness in Australia. - Training: This training equips organisations with essential skills and knowledge to support employees facing loneliness, enhancing workforce wellbeing and productivity. - Education & awareness: We're not just talking; we're researching loneliness and spreading knowledge on creating connections. - New counselling service: Expanding our support with a counselling service to offer deeper help for those struggling with isolation. - FriendLine and FriendLine Chat: A chat line where anyone feeling lonely can find a listening ear and a friendly voice. Simple, but powerful. Adding to the urgency, the World Health Organization (WHO) has declared loneliness a "global public health concern," highlighting its effects as being as detrimental as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. This declaration underscores the vital importance of the services Friends for Good provide and the pressing need to address loneliness on a global scale. To keep these services going, we need your help. Friends for Good is powered by volunteers and the support of the community. 🌱 How to support: Donating, volunteering, collaborating, or even just spreading the word helps us reach more people who need a bit of connection in their lives. Your support can help us keep these essential services running. If you're interested in finding out more, please message me to arrange a chat. Patricia Lauria Laura Rouhan Emmanuel Hart Daniel Teoh Kei Ho Rachael Dickinson Hedy Ivanovski

Laughter Yoga Expert & Transformational Coach | Empowering Businesses with Wellbeing Workshops | Supporting Burnt-Out Professional Women 30+ to Achieve Joyful, Balanced Lives | DM me to learn how
Frustratingly, it's not uncommon to invest time and effort in crafting detailed service quotes, only to be met with silence. I extend flexibility, especially for charitable organisations, encouraging open dialogue if the proposed quote doesn't align with their budget. Yet, despite the offer to negotiate fair pricing, replies remain elusive. What compounds this frustration is discovering alternative avenues for demonstrations, often through uninformed channels. However, it's vital to underscore the importance of formal training for Laughter Yoga instructors. They must navigate health concerns, assess participant energies, and facilitate emotional release safely. I'm deeply committed to my craft, advocating for its tangible value beyond mere entertainment. Laughter Yoga isn't a novelty; it's a research-backed wellness practice requiring consistency for optimal benefits. Let's elevate our understanding and appreciation for its significance. #laughteryoga #wellbeing #valueinvesting #investinyourpeople #healthandhappiness 🌿💫
