Taking stock of what Community Development learning I have contributed towards before my mum died

Terminal illness and death of a dear one provide a natural time for us to take stock of our lives.

Although I've been putting at least one blog post a month on the Sussex Community Blog (http://sussexcommunity.blogspot.com) since the October 2010 fire is site, with my focus for the last six weeks being to assist my mother have a peaceful death, March 2012 nearly produced no update to the blog. Yet much is now happeneing in St Leonards in terms of Community Planning / Community Development. That story will be taken up more by the Sussex Community Blog (and associated blogs from Paul Crosland & friends).
