Good relationships stick well beyond the length of any project, programme or job.
Creating conditions for shared learning, action and joy to sustain, to grow and to ripple out.
One of the things I love about working in the place I live is it means those relationships are constantly reenforced by chance encounters.
Today’s @parkrunUK joy in @AlexParkMCR was multipled by bumping into the wonderful Lynda who set up @OTcreativespace & Jamie, podcast producer. Both who I got to know and work with through @GMMoving #RightToTheStreets partnership.

Where is home for you? Where do you feel a strong connection to?
We enjoyed time reflecting on this with @OTcreativespace this morning, using world maps and making paper boat letters.
