Making it happen Practical learning and tips from the five Realising the Value local partner sites
November 2016

Key points
- Realising the Value was an 18-month programme that aimed to consolidate what is known about person- and community-centred approaches for health and wellbeing, and make recommendations on how they can have maximum impact.
- This catalogue of learning sets out practical learning and examples of good practice from the five Realising the Value local partner sites.
As a key part of the Realising the Value programme, we worked with five voluntary community and social enterprise sector organisations as local partner sites, each with a wealth of experience of working with these approaches.
This catalogue of learning has been produced in close collaboration with the sites, drawing on evidence combined with their practical learning and tips to others seeking to get to grips with the practicalities of person- and community-centred approaches.
