Community action. Systems change. Integral thinking. Finding rhythms for deeper connection. Playing with emergence. Love Boro and my mint family.

Lived in Boro decades or only visit occasionally? Our Community Research team are taking a snaphot of what people value & what they hope for in local cultural/community life. We hope to whip up the findings to pass to people with policy power & activists. forms.gle/SjQVAS62Ac8YXTtf8

It was tremendous to be at this gathering of hopeful hearts this week. Beneath the real disconnection we often feel is a sea of connection and possibility. Travelled home eager to weave new stories that help bridge our experiences and build a better world
It was fantastic to welcome so many friends, colleagues and collaborators to @UCLEast for the opening conversation of Ordinary Hope. The joint project between @UCL and @jrf_uk aims to help power the future of economic and social justice in the UK.

We had a wonderful day late last year with @Anoosh_C from New Statesman visiting our public living rooms and Blueprint Festival sessions. Very pleased to share the thoughtful write up which has just landed. Human connection and opportunities lurking in difficult times

Big respect to @Anoosh_C for hitting the streets of Boro to meet #camerados & putting crucial need for spaces to simply come together at the heart of #CostOfLivingCrises @Camerados_org @AndyFalconer82 #CostOfConnection

Inspiring night tuning in to the #WhatNextSummit Zoom about Imagination and how it weaves through ideas of social change and conjuring new worlds. We all have access to imagination but cultivating that in systems and organisations is a beautiful challenge.

I got to dip my toe into writing and it was so good to get to talk about alley greening in Boro. Despite 2020 we're still seeing great new projects starting. Community-led, community assets. Community connection

Thursday's @BoroSOUP was a mint glimpse at another great local project: this time 2B pop-up arts space. Together we raised £525! Keep an eye out for 2B as they prepare to open as a creative health venue in Hill Street Centre @2B15682370 supported by @Transitions_17
