This is one of a short series that I've adapted from short presentations, purely for the purposes of being able to print the hand-outs, for a number of events that I've attended recently. This one is about the process of mapping health and well-being assets in a locality just north of Glasgow. It's something we hope to replicate elsewhere

1. ALISS Making Self-Management Support more findable A ccess to L ocal I nformation to S upport S elf-Management A collaboration between the Scottish Government, NHS Scotland, and the Long Term Conditions Alliance Scotland…and ever so many other organisations…and people… [email_address]

2. We’re putting health & well-being assets in Kirkintilloch on the map

3. Here’s a well-being asset

4. Here, we’re adding notes to photos of local assets, and keeping tabs on any we haven’t included yet

5. We mapped personal networks too

6. And said how things could be simply better.

7. How a photo turns into a clickable blob: First, talk about the ‘asset’…

8. … then, add some ‘tags’ (labels)…

9. Next, stick it on a shareable spreadsheet (if that’s convenient)…

10. and put it on an index card (‘curation’) in the ALISS Engine…

11. … from where another piece of software, used by a different (partner) organisation ( IRISS ), fishes it out and adds the right blob to the map.
