The designers of our 2024 official t-shirt, Tom and Giovanna Fletcher recently visited a BBC Children in Need funded project WE ARE GROW to see the impact of Fuelling Potential in action. While at GROW, Tom and Giovanna met with Asda Community Champion Jess, project workers and young people at the heart of GROW to learn about how they influence the lives of the young people in the local area through their farm project, summer and after school clubs. The 2024 T-shirt is available to purchase online an instore at George at Asda: https://lnkd.in/euvuaWgK

Join this free event celebrating six years of The Listening Fund tomorrow! The Listening Fund supports the youth sector to be accountable to young people by listening to their voices, and is funded by BBC Children in Need. The Fund is closing at the end of 2024 and this event in October is an opportunity to both celebrate and share what we've learnt. Partners and funders alike will be offering their insights into how to establish meaningful listening within an organisation, the challenges they overcame, and the ones they're still wrestling with. We hope it will be a valuable event for colleagues involved in delivering listening work, or designing listening work, or creating strategies which incorporate listening work. https://lnkd.in/eyZwa4h4
