The Place Standard Tool
Speaker:
Colin Gilmour, Head of Health Improvement, NHS Western Isles Alison Macdonald, Senior Health Promotion Officer, NHS Western Isles
Summary of Session:
The Place Standard tool provides a simple framework to structure conversations about place. It allows you to think about the physical elements of a place (for example its buildings, spaces, and transport links) as well as the social aspects (for example whether people feel they have a say in decision making).
The tool provides prompts for discussions, allowing you to consider all the elements of a place in a methodical way. The tool pinpoints the assets of a place as well as areas where a place could improve
