Welcome Them!

Profile Information

Welcome! FierySpirits is for activists and professionals who are building vibrant, resilient rural communities. Tell us a little about why you'd like to join?: I have lived and worked in rural communities for 34 of my 49 years. At present I am particularly interested in issues about rural communities and resilience.

About Me (areas of expertise/interest I can share): After a varied career in the public and voluntary sectors I am currently working as a researcher at the Centre for Rural Health. I am particularly interested in issues around rural service delivery and community engagement. At the moment work and family commitments mean not much time for community interests but I have previously been involved in public life in lots of guises from local to national orgs.

The toolkit is still up on the Park website - http://www.cairngorms.co.uk/park-authority/about-us/publications/?publicationID=179 - and I've enjoyed reading it. Think this could be a really useful resource for people involved in asset mapping. I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on how taking an assets approach (through appreciative inquiry) got different results from the previous pilots. What were the key differences? How easy (or difficult) was it to engage people in discussions of community strengths, rather then focusing on needs / issues / deficits?
