In this episode Paula Christie, CDN’s Research and Enhancement Lead, chats to Jeanette Dobson, Former Learner and now Peer Navigator on the Trust Project at West Lothian College, to discuss some of the themes within the recently published CDN Research and Enhancement Centre report: ‘Pathways from Poverty, Leading With Empathy and Vision: An Insight into West Lothian College.’

Jeanette talks about some of the direct actions highlighted in the report to tackle poverty and help learners sustain their own learning at college.

“We try to eliminate the stresses in peoples lives and narrow it down so that we can get the right help for that person. And all they have to do is turn up to college.”
