Social Impact Marketing by Nafford Junction

Economic degrowth—can it truly lead to a more sustainable future? @Ethical Consumer Magazine and the inspiring speakers at their recent conference tackled this pressing question, diving into the power of sharing, community resilience, and rethinking traditional economic models. With insights from Roger Higman at Network of Wellbeing, James Atherton at LUSH Spring Prize, Cath Muller at Radical Roots Network, and Ali Clifford at Incredibusy, the conversation highlighted real-world solutions like Devon’s Library of Things—where access replaces ownership, reducing waste while strengthening local communities. As more purpose-driven businesses rethink their impact, how can we integrate these models into everyday life? Is degrowth a necessary step toward sustainability, or is there a better way to balance progress with planetary health? Let’s discuss! 📢 Read the full write-up here: https://lnkd.in/e597FsVb 💡 At Nafford Junction, we work with purpose-driven startups and organizations to amplify their impact through strategic social impact marketing.

In times of crisis, businesses that prioritize real impact stand out. Headspace’s commitment to supporting the mental health of those affected by the LA wildfires is a powerful example of purpose-driven action. Providing free access to their app for Los Angeles County residents isn’t just a gesture—it’s a crucial resource for those navigating the emotional aftermath of disaster. Mental health challenges don’t disappear once the smoke clears. Studies show that post-disaster trauma can persist for months or even years, making accessible mental wellness tools more important than ever. By stepping up in this way, Headspace is not only helping individuals heal but also strengthening community resilience. What other initiatives do you think can make a meaningful difference in disaster recovery? Let’s keep this conversation going. #MentalHealth #CommunitySupport #PurposeDrivenBusiness
