SUMMARY:LARIA Webinar 1
DESCRIPTION:Session 1: Unlocking Local Insight: Exploring LG Inform Data with Power BI and the Birmingham City Observatory\nDiscover the art of the possible with LG Inform data and Power BI in this inspiring webinar from the Birmingham City Observatory. We’ll showcase how to turn performance and finance metrics into powerful\, comparative insights across local authorities. Learn how to harness the LG Inform API alongside Power BI to explore trends\, benchmark against peers\, and uncover stories in your data that drive better decision-making. Perfect for analysts\, strategists\, and anyone curious about turning public data into meaningful local insight.\nDanny O’Neill\, City Observatory Lead\, Birmingham City Council & Mark Williams\, Senior Data Adviser\, Local Government Association \nSession 2: Mind the gap: how patients experience hospital discharge\nMind the Gap was a research project commissioned by Southwark council and its NHS partners to improve the hospital discharge process\, particularly for patients transferring from hospital to home with at-home support. The research used ethnographic methods\, including interviews and observations in hospital before discharge and later at home\, to capture the experiences of patients and families. Key findings revealed gaps in patient understanding and anxiety about the discharge process\, and a lack of family-carer involvement. We co-opted community researchers to bring local context\, ease communication\, and build community research skills. The findings led to the establishment of the Returning Home from Hospital Project which is implementing improvements like accessible patient information\, new roles to provide discharge advice\, and better coordination with family-carers. Two of the community researchers who were involved in Mind the Gap continue to work with Partnership Southwark\, and one is using the experience to support her ambitions to become a social researcher.\nBen Lee\, Director\, Shared Intelligence \nSession 3: Tackling the cost of living together in Stockport\nA look at how in Stockport\, a highly polarised borough in Greater Manchester\, the council has worked together with partners to use data as the key to unlocking inequalities and to close the gap between our most deprived and our most affluent areas. Our approach has allowed us greater insight into emerging trends and helped target financial support to the most vulnerable households in the borough.\nImogen Fox\, Delivery Manager – Financial Inclusion & Tom Plant\, Anti-Poverty Lead\, Stockport Metropolitan Borough Council \nWebinars are available free of charge to Full Individual Members\, Corporate Members\, Full Corporate Members and Additional Corporate Members. For Associate and Non Members \, please sign up to membership to access the webinars. For more details on the benefits of membership\, please see here. \nSign in to register: \n\n\n\nLoading…
