Developed by Queen’s School of Nursing & Midwifery, the School of Social Sciences, Education and Social Work, and the CHA research team led by Professor Rachel Baker (Glasgow Caledonian University), the toolkit was co‑designed with Colin Neighbourhood Partnership and Oak Healthy Living Centre. It translates rigorous CHA research into practical steps, showing how activities build social connectedness, capabilities and mental wellbeing, grounded in a mixed‑methods, realist evaluation with 14 UK community led organisations (CLO) partners.
