Does your organisation want to grow in 2024? 🌱 Growth requires the willingness to 'embrace' change. 🌱 Waltham Forest Community Hub has embraced many changes... https://lnkd.in/eW3HkYWS * we pivoted to pick up increasing needs due to the cost of living crisis (providing more housing advice & introducing 1-1 energy warmth advice), * reviewed our fundraising strategy and increased our focus on raising funds (increasing income by 12%), * our Trustee Board doubled the number of trustees, * we restructured and increased our leadership capacity, * we won the Prestige Community Centre of the year Award and were a nominee of a Charity Times Award. * What an incredible year! 🌱 My greatest learning has been to say 'NO' to sitting on Tables that don't support our charity or serve our purpose. 🌱 Our energy & time is precious. Since capacity is so limited in small charities to prevent you from burnout: 1️⃣ put your greatest attention to cutting back by saying 'NO', 2️⃣ Ask for more money from Funders, Sponsors & Donors and 3️⃣ Be innovative about increasing capacity. Our Trustee Board has 2 Vice Chairs. 🌱 If you are unlikely to get core or capacity building funding, look for solutions outside the box. 🌱 I'm relieved to start the year with Trevor Duberry JP as Co-chairs of the Waltham Forest VCSE Leadership Group. 🌱 I intend to only be where I can make the greatest difference! #charityceos how do you intend to be more strategic this year? #leadershipmatters #walthamforest #smallbusinessgrowth #creatingchange

Increasingly, since the pandemic, our Primary Academies have seen that more of our families are struggling. Too often, we see children coming to school in damaged shoes, in clothes that are too small; we see children, and families, going hungry; we hear from children that they don’t have any toys or books at home. We believe it is our duty to do what we can to change this. This is why we are opening Community Hubs: so that families in need can come to collect essential items. Our supporters have been instrumental in making these Community Hubs happen, pledging financial support and donations of items. Could you, or your company, help? As well as food, our Community Hubs will stock nappies, toiletries, uniform, clothes, books and toys - so even £50 would make a difference. https://lnkd.in/eDGVfxP9 If you want to add your support, please visit: https://lnkd.in/eH4bick4 Or message Emily Clarke #HarrisFederation #Education #CommunityHubs #PrimaryAcademies

As promised - a strategy to inspire conversation. This time, the execution portion of the paper is written for Non-Profit organizations to look at how they take the skills and experience they have learned over the years and utilize it to form relationships with local governments and community groups and give them skills to manage disaster components as locally as possible. Is it THE way? Not likely. No plan survives first touch. Is it A way? Yes. Can it inspire conversation? I sure hope so. See you tomorrow EMAT. See you in a week NVOAD. Let's talk about it. #CommunityPreparedness #EmergencyManagement https://lnkd.in/eUGd-9jN

In today's fast-paced and often isolating world, it's easy to feel disconnected from those around us. But community is more than just a nice-to-have - it's a vital necessity for our well-being and happiness. In recent times, we've faced unprecedented challenges such as the COVID-19 pandemic, economic uncertainty, and social isolation. Amidst these challenges, it's more important than ever to have a strong sense of community to turn to. Community provides us with a sense of belonging, support and connection. It gives us a platform to share our experiences, learn from others, and find comfort in times of need. When we're part of a community, we feel seen, heard, and valued. Moreover, community has the power to bring people together, foster empathy and understanding, and create positive change in our lives and the world around us. So let's prioritise community building and nurturing the connections that make us stronger. Let's come together, support each other, and build a brighter future for all. Join us in celebrating the importance of community and let's make a difference!

Fellow Torontonians, How Civically Engaged Are You? A new report from the Toronto Foundation's 2023 Vital Signs Report, shows a concerning trend regarding our falling levels of collective civic engagement. Being an active community volunteer has always been part of my DNA, and I consider myself very fortunate to be able to give back with my time, skills, and dollars. In addition to providing stats the report, provides resources and suggestions for getting involved. These stats won't change unless those of us who can engage take up the challenge. I applaud the report's focus on helping readers take action and become engaged. Here are some top-level stats from the report >The percentage of people with six or more close friends declined by 20 percentage points from 2013 to 2018 and a further nine points from 2018 to 2022. >The volunteer rate fell from 37% to 25% between 2018 and 2022, while the donation rate slipped from 75% to 63%, leading to a loss of about 300,000 donors and 300,0000 volunteers. #Toronto #civicengagement #torontofoundation #volunteering #commuity #thesix Read the full report here:
