  8. Connecting Policy and ActionCommunity Engagement Demonstration work within Llanbryde This research is a three-stage project that aims to engage with a local community as equal partners to identify the links between environment and health, with the intention of enabling participants to effect change in their environment and lives. The project running throughout 2011 has three distinct stages: • Stage 1 – Rapid appraisal and engagement with the local community • Stage 2 – In depth engagement work • Stage 3 – Action - An action plan for a longer-term project will be drawn up by participants to identify realistic interventions and more effective utilisation of existing assets.

  9.

Four locations • Wester Hailes, Edinburgh • Royston, Glasgow • Dalmellington/Bellsbank, East Ayrshire • Levenmouth, Fife

  10. PotentialKey Achievements from GPBH prototype phase • Gathered and synthesised evidence that involved expert opinion, practitioner opinion, academic literature and data • Identified the key issues to be tackled to create health nurturing places for children • Demonstrated the ability to build capacity at local level to help improve the places where people live
