Beacon Mentoring & Peer Support
As part of Kent’s commitment to share its best practice surrounding the 2012 Games we regularly undertake close one-to-one support and working with interested authorities. In addition, as part of the LLLL (Local Leadership, Local Legacy) project, Kent along with two other Beacon Authorities (Essex and Hackney) will be supporting a number of targeted authorities to use the 2012 Games as a catalyst to specifically improve the health inequality outcomes of their locality.
Mentoring and peer support could be in the form of:
- Authorities may wish to bring a delegation to visit us to see an initiative in action and to engage in detailed discussions about the development of that initiative
- Authorities may ask our service experts (officers or elected members) to visit their authority to provide an objective assessment of what they currently do and how it might be improved
- Authorities may wish for Kent to work with them to develop an improvement plan for their own services.
- Through the LLLL project, selected authorities will be supported to use the 2012 Games to specifically explore addressing health inequality through sport and physical activity.
In Kent we do not consider that we have all the answers, and will seek to learn from your own best practice too.
If you are interested in exploring peer support or mentoring with Kent County Council surrounding delivering a legacy from the 2012 Games please contact Stephanie Holt, Kent Manager for the 2012 Games.
