If your museum hasn’t worked in this way before having some tangible examples of this can help you think about ideas and influence internally.
Read three examples on the MyCommunity website of how local partnerships have taken action to improve local services. Perhaps there are some that might have benefited from having a museum as part of the delivery?

This should take about 30 minutes.
Please record your learning in your reflection notes.
There are other examples from museums and these can be found in the final section of this course – Putting it into Practice.
