Privileged to be at the @SHU_AWRC today for a presentation about the recent @DarnallWB community research about #socialprescribing & #frailty. A perfect example of the power of #community #research & how to conduct it effectively, authentically & transformatively.

[Darnall Well Being @DarnallWB]

What a fantastic event this morning! With our community researchers having 9 different ethnicities & speaking 11 languages between them, plus a passion to develop themselves and their community, it's no wonder they have done so well involving local people in their research. 👏

[Advanced Wellbeing Research Centre @SHU_AWRC]

This morning, we hosted the launch of the findings of a co-produced community research project focused on culturally sensitive social prescribing and frailty prevention.

The innovative community-led methodology was co-designed and piloted by @DarnallWB and @CRESR_SHU

Thank you to our friends at @SHU_AWRC for hosting our AGM in their lecture theatre. It was a great space for the event and we're grateful for how welcome they made us all! 🙏

[Advanced Wellbeing Research Centre @SHU_AWRC]

It was a pleasure to host our friend and strategic collaborator @DarnallWB's AGM at @SHU_AWRC last week. What a fantastic performance from the Somali dance group!

[Darnall Well Being @DarnallWB]

A snapshot of our October! It's great that we're being asked to be involved in so many wider projects & research opportunities. If you contact us about a collaboration, please bear in mind that we will want to consider each request as a team before deciding whether to go ahead.

[Darnall Well Being @DarnallWB]

The group has developed from the focus group that was established in collaboration with @tuosmusic research into music and dementia. JoJanGles meet every fortnight on Wednesdays, so they will be enjoying a variety of music together this afternoon! 3/

[Darnall Well Being @DarnallWB]

🧵 A big thank you to our volunteers, Janet and Glenys, who got up to speak at our AGM and share their experiences about being involved with the JoJanGles dementia music group. They shared some lovely feedback from attendees at the group. 1/

[Darnall Well Being @DarnallWB]

And showed the value of coming together to share music, both for people living with Dementia and their carers. As one attendee told them recently - “I didn’t want to get up today, but I’m so glad I came.” 🎶

We were very pleased to be invited to this event with one of our Green Social Prescribing participants. We know the value that trees and green spaces offer for people's physical & mental health, so it's great to be involved with these ones being planted right in our local area!

[South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority @SouthYorksMCA]

🌳 Help us plant 1.4 million trees! 🌳

The Mayor’s Free Trees for Communities Scheme is back open for orders, offering groups across South Yorkshire free tree packs to plant within their local areas.

This year, South Yorkshire’s Mayor @olivercoppard is also inviting businesses and landowners to come forward with ideas for larger-scale tree planting projects.
