The outline plan for the day is to explore the following:

11am Welcome and context setting: Maria will open the meeting given some background and context to the day, highlighting regional and national priorities to be mindful of (The core group will help to draw these together in the pre meeting) 11.10 Summarising what has been achieved as WAP so far: Tracy or Magic Parsnips to lead on this asking first what the group feel WAP has achieved, then highlighting areas of work carried out during past 12 months (I will distribute a paper on this before the meeting)The communication strategy priorities will be used to inform this part of the conversation. Outcome: identify which of the areas of the communication strategy need to be developed further, which are no longer thought relevant. To have a joined up understanding of what WAP has achieved, and the mechanisms through which it has achieved them/ This is likely to lead directly into the next point. 11.30am Looking at the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Strengths as a collective. Outcome: To look at the mechanisms that have been used to date by WAP, and how we might work together to operate more effectively in the future, as well as to highlight the strengths that we have in order to maximise on those. noon What priority of need do we see WAP needs to serve in the future? Ask the membership what they see as the priorities Outcomes: The Core group have explored this and can share the findings from these mtgs within the conversation (I will redistribute the notes on this) These need to be supplemented by the thoughts of the wider group. 12.45
