  • 🌟 Yesterday, Alice and Asha from our grants team spent the day with Forever Manchester, Foundation Scotland, The London Community Foundation and Community Foundation Northern Ireland reflecting on the Nourish the Nation program delivered in partnership with Sainsbury's and Comic Relief. It was an insightful day filled with open, constructive conversations with other Community Foundations involved in distributing the funding. We shared successes, exchanged ideas, and explored innovative approaches and solutions to overcoming common challenges 💬 Hearing how the Nourish the Nation fund has positively impacted disadvantaged children and young people across the UK was truly moving. These stories remind us why we do what we do and we look forward to applying the lessons we've learned to make next year’s program even more impactful! 🙌

    The importance of assessing and unpacking past programmes to uncover key learnings can’t be understated. The more we can understand about what worked and what didn’t, the better our future programmes will be. So it was great to spend the day with our community foundation colleagues from Foundation Scotland, Community Foundation Northern Ireland , Community Foundation Wales , Forever Manchester and Comic Relief today - sharing the successes and challenges from the Sainsbury's Nourish The Nation summer programme. An inspiring, insightful and collaborative session with lots of takeaways for future programmes. (An extra special thank you to Sarah Frost and Francesca Wood for doing such a great job of facilitating our time together 🙂)
