Manifesting a Transition Centre

This is Version 2.  My first attempt was circulated to a very small group who gave me some really valuable feedback and I do thank you all sincerely. This version is open to a much broader community for feedback and input - especially around suggestions for content and programme offerings.  Contents which already exist to a greater or lesser extent and which I hope to offer are indicated with an  asterix*. In advance, I thank you...
