SOS: Stacie's Organizing Solutions’ Post

🚨 Big News from SOS: Stacie’s Organizing Solutions! 🚨 I am so excited to announce the first of two *new*, budget-friendly services we’ve added to our SOS lineup! We believe organized spaces bring peace, but many people struggle to access organizing services due to today’s economic challenges. This has created a widening gap in the market not currently being addressed. Our two new services have been designed, tested, and implemented to bridge this gap. 📣Introducing Service # 1 📣 DECLUTTER IN ACTION — our live decluttering experience! An energizing, motivating, and affordable event delivering hands-on help to transform your spaces on the spot. Now booking: OAKVILLE/BURLINGTON NORTH YORK LEASIDE for the week of October 28th. Limited to 5 spots per event. DM for location details and to grab your spot. Each event has been selling out same or next day. Stay tuned for the second service launch! #IndustryDisruption #IndustryLeaders #InnovatorsOfChange #ProfessionalOrganizers #DeclutterYourMessWithSOS #LiveDeclutteringExperience #BudgetFriendlySolutiontoClutter #OrganizedSpacesPeacefulPlaces

Important Announcement: Cancellation of Australia Day 2025 Event   The City of Armadale has made the difficult but necessary decision to cancel the Australia Day 2025 event and fireworks. This decision comes in light of the Metronet Byford Rail Extension works, which will significantly impact the areas around Minnawarra Park and Armadale Road in January 2025, making it unsafe for large public gatherings.   Our team explored various alternative locations and event formats, but after thorough consideration, the Council concluded that cancelling the 2025 event is the best option to ensure the safety and integrity of our celebrations. We plan to utilise the funds reserved for 2025 to host an even bigger and better event in 2026, welcoming everyone back to the City Centre.   Mayor Ruth Butterfield stated, "The City recognises the continuing popularity of our Australia Day Event, and we want to ensure this annual feature is the best that we can offer. The unavoidable works around Minnawarra Park meant we had to look at alternative arrangements, and as a Council, we decided that cancelling the 2025 event was the best option under the circumstances. We look forward to welcoming everyone back in 2026."   We understand this news may be disappointing, and we appreciate your understanding and support. For more details on this decision and the proposed alternatives, please refer to the Council minutes available on our website at https://buff.ly/3Xw853R.   #CityOfArmadale #AustraliaDay2025 #CommunityUpdate #MetronetWorks #PublicSafety

Compassionate Cuppa recently attended a 'Co-Production Session' at Southampton Voluntary Services. We are very grateful to Rebecca Kinge for co-ordinating the event 💜 We wanted to involve others in the development of Compassionate Cuppa's Calm Area provision. This is to help conferences and community events be more inclusive and accessible. Calm Areas may alternatively be called Quiet Spaces. We've called them Calm Areas because conveys the purpose of the space - whether you experience stress, overwhelm or sensory overload, it's a safe space to be supported to find your calm. 🌸 The provision of a Calm Area is far from mainstream. If you went to an event, do you think having access to one would be beneficial for you? Could this be the difference between attending an event and leaving early, or not going at all? Please leave any comments below 👇 or DM us 💜 Image Description: At the top is the title Calm Area Have a cuppa here on us. In the middle shows an ideas board with various project ideas written down. On the bottom right are the hashtags CalmArea, InclusiveSpaces and EmpathyInAction. On the bottom right is the Compassionate Cuppa logo. #CompassionateCuppa #CalmArea #InclusiveSpaces #AccessibleEvents #CoProductionSession #CommunitySupport #QuietSpaces #SupportiveEnvironment #EventInclusion #CalmnessMatters #SafeSpaces #EventAccessibility #SupportForAll #CalmAreaProvision #EmpathyInAction

Well done for advertising these amazing facilities, we’re seeing them pop-up at so many key attractions👏👏 As part of Destination North East England #accessibility and #inclusion initiative (coordinated by NewcastleGateshead Initiative, Visit County Durham and Visit Northumberland LVEP (DMO)) 3D Virtual Spaces is adding 360 images into virtual models showing what facilities are available in the Changing Places UK space. This is good information to have from an accessibility perspective, but also acts as a great virtual “familiarisation tool”, helping neurodivergent people who want to understand what the space will look like in advance, reducing anxiety when they physically visit. Here’s an example👍 https://lnkd.in/eSHTrmMi

Four weeks to go! The future planning of our cities and the sports and facilities within them is crucial to create thriving spaces and communities. Join us for the 2024 PLA National Conference as we discuss how these facilities can enhance the health and wellbeing of all Australians. Vision planning will determine how these places serve our communities now and in the future. With the 2032 Brisbane Games on the horizon, there’s no better time to think about the lasting legacy we can create. At this year’s conference, we’ll delve into: - Building for the Future: how well-designed facilities can support Australia’s athletic success and promote healthier, more active communities. - Creating Lasting Legacies: learn about Brisbane’s plans for the 2032 Games and how these ideas can inspire forward-thinking projects across the nation. - Innovative Facility Planning: cutting-edge approaches to designing spaces that are not only functional but also sustainable and inclusive. - Enhancing Community Well-being: how the right infrastructure can drive community engagement and improve the overall quality of life. Don’t miss it! If you’re interested in planning, designing, or managing sports and community facilities, these events will be for you. Register now 👉 https://lnkd.in/eyKxv5ak
