For DiscussionFor Discussion

Do we all set outcomes and measure in a comparable way?

Are the Delivering Change Outcomes broad enough to encompass the many aspects of CCB?

Is this about the process leading to outcomes?

Can we include partners further and if so how?

How do we show the joint impact of partnership working for CCB?
