Join Community Organisers this July to learn about the underlying causes of financial disparities in low income communities and the innovative ways communities can address the strain.
This discussion will examine how increasing financial pressures placed on people in low income communities are creating new ‘economic models’ that are based on sharing and exchange as opposed to profit.
The specific discussion topics will look at:
- How communities are finding innovative ways to address the financial and social strain that people feel, and,
- Collectively exploring what the root causes are that are driving the financial pressures that are placed on low income communities.
Whether you’re an experienced assembly organiser or new to the concept, this webinar is an opportunity to connect with changemakers, gain real-world insights, and shape the future of citizen-led decision-making.
This session is part of the Community Practitioners Network, please see below for more information.

About the Community Practitioner’s Network
Local Trust have funded Big Local Workers and volunteers access to Community Organisers’ Community Practitioners’ Network.
This network is made up of community practitioners from across the UK working in a range of careers in the community.
It provides expert led webinars twice a month on subjects such as reaching out and engaging with the community, working across different ethnicities and faith, managing conflict, creating a strategy to bring about change in communities, managing stress and avoiding burnout to name only a few. All webinars are tailored around your wants and needs.
We have a catalogue of over 45 past webinars that you can watch in your own time, and we are on hand for support and guidance.
We also hold monthly reflective sessions facilitated by our Lead Trainer, where you can share successes and challenges with your peers and problem solve together. These sessions are pivotal to your mental wellbeing and connecting with your peers to create an ongoing support network.
