Delighted to read of wonderful generosity from Allen Samuels. A delightful, generous soul who fought so hard, thoughtfully, compassionately to keep a community library in Kensal Rise.

This webinar explores the effect of place & policy on children's health & development, sharing strategies on how to improve existing conditions to allow all children to thrive.

It's USA focused, but the learning is relevant in the UK.
