It’s been a privilege to work on this co-production toolkit
Had the most heartwarming experience singing Christmas carols at a care home the other day. It was amazing to see how a little thing can make such big impact. It’s left me even more motivated and excited to create work that can make a difference, even if it’s just in a small way.

Busy and varied day today, now on to a Zine workshop with the @lonelinesscentr Alone but together- connecting through storytelling.
Just been to a zine-making workshop led by @ruthnaughtondoe at @lonelinesscentr. Strict 90-second limit to make a page, given a prompt for each. Phew. It was great. Thanks! Here’s mine.
@LeedsOPF @CrossGatesGNS David is an invaluable Trustee and member of the @TTSLeeds evaluation group. The @TTSLeeds programme would be a poorer project without him.
This week we're looking at the lessons learned from @tts Younger Older people projects with delivery partners and learning about using Zines for storytelling with @lonelinesscentr
Can one size fit all? How is co-production helping organisations to refine their services focus on what matters? ow.ly/Cl2W50AtXZw @lonelinesscentr @TTSLeeds
