Co-producing with Communities

Working in partnership with people with lived experience and colleagues from across all sectors and organisations to ensure Bradford is both trauma informed and responsive.

Talking About Adversity, Trauma and Resilience With Our Communities

In 2023, the Bradford ATR Programme made grants to lived experience recovery organisation, Create Strength, to lead on a number of community-focused pieces of work. One of the key elements of this was to run a series of focus groups with communities from across the district to raise awareness about the impacts of adversity and trauma, as well as the potential of building resilience factors. This was as much a learning opportunity for the programme, to see what our communities are concerned about, and how communities and people across Bradford are already coming together to provide networks of support to one another. This short film captures those conversations and the brilliant individuals and work that is happening all across the Bradford District.
