Activity: Public engagement and outreach › Contribution to the work of non-academic organisations
Description
I am currently a member of the advisory group for MyRoehampton, a project run by Citizens Advice Wandsworth and funded by Public Health England. MyRoehampton is an award-winning capacity building project to support the development of a thriving community and voluntary sector in Roehampton. Working directly with people, groups and charities to become more confident, engaged and effective at addressing issues impacting their daily life. Working with colleagues in the School of Arts and MyRoehampton stakeholder members, we are currently developing a long-term plan for the development of a resident-led, participatory culture in the local area, drawing on socially-engaged art practices and the approach taken by the Participatory City Foundation.
