• Information Sharing
• What can we offer?
• Reduce duplication
• Same message
• Join up resources
• Shared outcomes around health
Regeneration on this scale brings challenges and we must understand our varied role as a deliverer, a facilitator or enabler?
Ultimately the goal is to get the right support making the most effective use of its resources either individually or collectively
