For the last 10 years, Social Action Hubs such as the Wharton Trust in Hartlepool have been listening to, hearing the stories of people, and working with them to transform their local places and spaces.
To capture this work, Sacha and team have developed a ‘Neighbourhood Prospectus’ that sets out the communities asks to improve pride in place and to enhance the social, economic, and environmental regeneration in the area.
This session will explore their work and how community organising helps to build a power base in communities to give people a voice and power to decide the change they want to see in their area.
About the CPN
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.
