5. So…
…how can Welsh public services continue to make a positive impact on people’s lives with less money?
The traditional way of doing things no longer works – citizens want different things and we are trying to solve complex issues with less money
Need to work in partnership with each other and our communities to deliver citizen centred services – co-definition of the problems, co-design and co-delivery of the solutions
Learning from others on how to do things better, less, differently.
and…

6. Bottom Line!
“These are really terribly rough times and we should try to be as nice to each other as possible”
