IRISS has, for a long time, been interested in the way that
asset-based approaches can redress in favour of doing
things with people rather than doing things to people.
We set out with our partners in East Dunbartonshire to
explore how to implement an assets approach in action.

An overview of the learning from the Animating Assets project, which sought to apply asset-based approaches to health and well-being within four action research sites in Scotland. The project was a partnership between the Glasgow Centre for Population Health and the Scottish Community Development Centre (SCDC).
Slides from NHS Citizen Research Workshop convened on the 7th of April 2015 at the University of Westminster to discuss the Research Hub, a brand new element of the NHS Citizen design intended to support wider research and knowledge sharing.
The aim of the workshop was to explore possible research questions and projects and this presentation introduces what NHS Citizen research might look like in its different forms.

Healthy City works with community-based organizations to apply Community Based Participatory Action Research (CBPAR) in their mapping and community-engagement work. CBPAR starts with issues and strategies to produce analysis, uses mapping technology as one tool for community engagement and focuses on communities within a geographic location, such as a neighborhood. Using CPBAR in mapping facilitates engagement, education, strategizing, and dialogue among community members--including youth--and decision-makers.
Including young people in map making allows them to contribute their unique knowledge and lived experiences as community residents. Youth can provide invaluable insight and can act as change agents advocating on behalf of their communities. Whether you are a Youth Organizer, Community Liaison or Direct Service Provider, there are a number of ways you can incorporate and share youth data and stories using a variety of free resources and tools available on HealthyCity.org to build community power.
In this webinar you will learn how to:
1) Research and map youth population data to enhance program focus and planning on healthycity.org
2) Upload your own data onto a map
3) Use Wikimaps to better plan, collaborate and share youth outreach strategies and stories

In this presentation, Alison Petch identifies six important dimensions in developing an integrated approach. It was presented at the annual IRISS Champions event 2014.
2. From ‘what’s the matter with
you’ to “what matters to you’
A partnership project between:
-East Dunbartonshire Council
-East Dunbartonshire Community Health Partnership
-East Dunbartonshire Association for Mental Health
-East Dunbartonshire Voluntary Action
-IRISS
3.
4. The Process of Social Innovation
(Young Foundation, 2010)
6. Development of a digital tool
Collaborative approach with:
-People who use services
-Practitioners from across all areas of service provision (as
well as from the public and voluntary sector)
This involved:
-Training
-Testing
-Feedback and Evaluation
7.
8. What did practitioners think?
- I was surprised about the conversations that came out
of it, even for people that I’ve known for quite a while.
- One of the people I support has a personality disorder
and turns every positive into a negative. The map gave
some concrete evidence that actually he had a lot of
good things going on. He couldn’t argue with it.
- You might not normally dig deep enough because
you’re thinking just about health. But the asset
mapping makes you both think about a broader range
of stuff.
9. What did people who use services
think?
- It’s a like a grateful list on a bad day when you feel there is
noting to live for - writing stuff down makes you aware of
what you have. I didn't realise what I had
- Some of these things might have come out in
conversation, but it helps quite a bit seeing them
pictorially rather than just talking.
- I would do it again; at the moment I feel it is positive. I find
it empowering as an aspirational map.
- I am surprised at how much I have very close to me
10. The assets of the community
The assets of the community
13. How is the approach being used?
- to help inform future service development in the future
(addressing the gaps)
- Project outputs used as early intervention
- to help plan services around an individual (as part of the
Scottish recovery indicator)
- to help as a precursor towards self-directed support
(identifying what supports an individual already has in
their networks and helping them to make decisions
about their own support)
14. Summary
• assets-based approaches value the capacity, skills,
knowledge, connections and potential in individuals
and communities
• Focusing on strengths does not mean ignoring
challenges, or spinning struggles into strengths.
• Practitioners working in this way have to work in
collaboration - helping people to do things for
themselves. In this way, people can become co-
producers of support, not passive consumers of
support.
Editor's Notes
Intro IRISS has, for a long time, been interested in the way that asset based approaches can redress in favour of doing things with people rather than doing things to people. We set out with our partners in East Dunbartonshire to consider asset or strength-based ways in which the state and voluntary sector organisations could approach people who come into contact with the social care system. To develop a way which would help people to build upon their relationships and skills, without ignoring their needs and the risks in their lives. Changing role for the practitioner This was from the point of view that Informal networks of support rarely spring up spontaneously, but they can only be fostered by workers and organisations who are willing to take a radically different approach to working alongside many others, as part of a networked model of care, not by professionals who see their role as providing expert support to the needy.
USE THIS TO EXPLAIN HISTORY OF THE PROJECT We find the Young Foundation’s model of social innovation presented here useful to describe the type of change that we’re hoping to deliver in the partnership project. This describes the different stages of innovation from prompts through tot systemic change. There Many of these stages overlap and can be undertaken in a different order. Also some social innovations don’t go through all six stages. pROMPT – POLICY ENVIRONMENT PROMOTING ASSETS PROPOSAL – THE IDEA OF USING ASSET MAPPING TO IMPROVE SERVICES PROTOTYPES – A KINDOF PROOF OF CONCEPT PROJECT FROM MAY 2011-OCT2011 WHICH TESTED THE APPROACH SUSTAINING – BETTER TOGETHER FUNDING TO EMBED THE APPROACH AND WORK OUT A WAY OF MAKING THE PRACTICE A REALITY WE’VE STILL TO GET TO SCALE AND SYSTEMIC CHANGE… BUT WE’RE AIMING BIG!
So, we wanted to use an assets approach to improve service delivery. To take a holistic view of the person and to help them to identify assets that they could use to enhance their well-being. Explain the map Some examples – Huntington’s
Stuff here about: Tested with a range of practitioners (CMHT, PMHT, VOL SECTOR, PEER SUPPORT, OT) and people who use services ( mild, moderate, enduring) Practitioner challenges: Baseline survey… people did n ’ t identify any pesonal assets, nor community resources (just traditional services) Working to test something out/action research process – practitioners found this uncomfortable as used to validation etc.

BUT PEOPLE DON’T EXIST IN A VACUUM… AND TOLD US VERY CLEARLY THAT THEY WANTED TO LOOK AT DIFFERENT THINGS THAT MIGHT SUPPORT WELLBEING IN THE COMMUNITY…. COMMUNITY ASSETS. We worked with EDVA and the mental health improvement team to link into different community groups. Arranged a variety of different engagement – from going to groups that already existed, setting up stalls at gala days, hosting workshops for people who use services – each time building a clearer picture of each specific community. This was really a process of identifying and organizing community supports that were deemed useful for wellbeing from the eyes of the people who live in the community. 18 workshops/drop in's completed across ED Specific focussed workshops with EDVA, Dementia carers group, CYP groups x 3, residents groups x 3 76 asset texts to text line 6 ? community gala events attended 4 H&WB events attended Community engagement with 532 members of the public Project was strengthened by working in partnership with a range of different agencies and individuals who are engaging locally (some of whom are intrinsically asset based and who we learned a lot from )
