The Ferry Ward LCPP Cafe Conversation

Description: We have been holding Café Conversations in other parts of Dundee to provide an informal opportunity for community members, practitioners, and strategic leaders to get together to talk about what is working well in the community, consider what isn’t and work out ways together to improve things for everyone.

We are excited to bring the first LCPP cafe Conversation to The Ferry.

We ask community members and practitioners to bring real experiences to talk about. We spend time listening to each other, identifying the issues that need to be addressed and coming up with ways forward.

We are finding the conversations provide a great opportunity for people to get to know one another and really understand how they can support each other. As a result, housing officers have changed their way of working in communities and there are lots more activities going on for children and young people in the area.

The Café Conversation format will ensure that all voices are heard and that we identify actions to address the issues that come up.

What Matters to You

What Matters to You (WM2U) builds on the power of young people, families and practitioners to directly influence decisions surrounding local resources and services that impact their own lives and those of people in the community. We spend time truly listening to families, building trust and developing our relationships to find out what matters.

We aim to be alongside families to identify practical solutions to improve how public resources could be better utilised in their local communities to feel supported at the right time. Our Make It Happen Fund seeks to bring ideas into reality by shifting power, budgets and control into the hands of families and communities.

This project delivered in partnership with The Hunter Foundation and BBC Children in Need, currently situated within three Scottish local authorities, Clackmannanshire, Dundee and East Ayrshire.
