imaginative signage
throughout the LEAP area,
linking early years and
health facilities to each
other.
•People who live and work
in the LEAP area will be told
about the programme
and invited to participate.
Our Learning
• Deeper knowledge of the area, the inequalities that are not visible
in aggregated data
• The assets on our doorstep, adding up to a whole so much greater
than its parts
• Know about the evidence and practice that is most relevant to the
local context
• The relevance of evidence
• The gaps in existing evidenced based practice
• Potential for real social capital
Our Hopes and fears….looking back after 10 years
As we look back in 2024, we hope that:
• The portfolio projects achieves the changes we expected
• Services will have a more ecological approach
• The impact is evidenced
• Opportunities and outcomes have improved for over 10,000 children
• We have succeeded in changing practice and how resource is invested
But we fear:
• Change will have been slower than planned
• We’ll have suffered ‘programme envy’ from outside the LEAP area
• We won’t have spent enough on evaluation
• Professionals reverting back to their “comfort zone” in future
