We sincerely thank the Institute for Connected Communities (ICC) at the University of East London for their invaluable contribution to the Community Chest Evaluation in autumn 2023. Their expertise and dedication, led by Dr. Darren Sharpe and team, provided a robust evaluation framework and insightful findings that significantly enhanced our understanding of the Community Chest Social Prescribing Project.
