Here's what Devon County Council's Chief Exec' thinks of Open Hearts Open Minds "Equality of opportunity & social inclusion have been strong underlying principles of both Devon County Council & the DSP for a number of years now. There's a great deal of expertise in the county and Open Hearts Open Minds has provided a valuable tool to help people to continue to learn and to share experience. The articles and learning material on the site are very varied, often challenging and always practical. It has provided a valuable addition to our learning community" Phil Norrey
Feedback from Age Concern Chief Officer, Barrie Duke "I have found Open Hearts Open Minds to be an excellent resource for my own understanding of equality and diversity issues and equally invaluable when assessing other Age Concerns for their Age Concern Federation Quality Counts accreditation, a scheme that is accepted by the Charity Commission. I have placed a link on our national team of assessors intranet and refer other charities to this site."
Feedback from Wilfred Emmanuel Jones, The Black Farmer "Having worked my way out of a childhood in one of the toughest areas in Birmingham, I'm working in Devon to inspire people facing disadvantage and to encourage pioneers who want to make a difference. Open Hearts Open Minds can help you in doing the same through your own work, with its tools, information and ideas to keep you confident that you know you're doing what matters. Welcome to this learning community of people who work to make changes for the better!"
