Today's guest is Shelley Ames of the NHS Norfolk and Waveney Clinical and Commissioning Group. Shelley works alongside the Great Yarmouth Borough Council and the Active Norfolk partnership. The organisations share a mission to engage local residents in physical activity with special focus on those demographics who are least active and least supported to take up physical activity. In our conversation, Shelley shares how the Ideas to Action project redefined her programme.

And whilst the club is going through a period of change - a new name and new ways of attracting members from all backgrounds, Dave reflects on his challenges and the progress he's made through the Ideas to Action programme.
