We're looking forward to contributing to Food For Thought on 8th May 2025 in Bournemouth. Jon will be one of the panellists at the event. How can we support our local food community so that it nourishes the BCP community in terms of health and economy? www.helpandkindness.co.uk/news/255/Loo...

Dorset Council have been shining a light on the work of the Dorset Integrated Prevention Partnership today. We have two contracts to contribute services to this Partnership. One of them is Dorset's Community Response. www.helpandkindness.co.uk/dorsets-community-response #PlaceMaking 1/

One of our core services at #HelpAndKindness is called Dorset's Community Response. It's a central point of contact for people to get in touch to find help in their local area. It is supported by Dorset Council to work with adults and children's social workers and other partners across Dorset. 1/

The more we have done in our work as Help And Kindness, the more committed we've become to our core mission to link people together. In our work within the food ecosystem, jointly setting up the Feeding Dorset Partnership Sustainable Food Place, we see again and again how much good is happening. 1/

Marking World Day of Social Justice 2025 at #HelpAndKindness Working for Social Justice Promoting #Equity #Inclusion www.helpandkindness.co.uk/news/246/Mar... #WorldDayOfSocialJustice #WorldDayOfSocialJustice2025

Today is #RandomActsOfKindnessDay! Small acts of kindness can make a big difference. Whether it's lending a hand to a neighbour or simply offering a smile to a stranger, every gesture counts. It's important to remember the power of working together to help strengthen our communities.

Translators heal worlds that are broken too.

Great to see this coming to fruition. There's lots to unpack from this model, but I particularly like the use of the infinity symbol to capture the dynamic and ongoing nature of the work. How these processes work in threaded or overlapping contexts / workstreams is a harder one to draw!
