Hi folks, I'm currently planning a really practical resource blog on ways to improve access, inclusion, engagement and outreach, predominantly in theatres. The blog will feature tips I've learned across the arts, education and charity sectors, as well as research from my MA, and some tips from specialists in the fields of access and engagement. If you have any questions or issues you're facing which this blog might be able to help with, please send them my way!

Accepting Members! We need to learn and re-learn how to build caring community - We are statistically more isolated than we have ever been. I have some useful ideas about that as I've spent much of my adult life engaged in building community support circles: This is a discussion group gathered to support the participants in building community groups of various kinds: peer support groups, study groups, social and recreational groups, discussion and café groups, circle groups. I firmly believe that our current individual support structures are insufficient for negotiating an era of complex and compounding crises, and that well- designed, resourced and curated community and peer support groups are profoundly necessary at this time. This group is designed to support lay people and community members and clinicians in building healthy, boundaried, well-designed non-clinicial community groups. Many people who have attended this workshop have found it useful, even if they didn’t have a consolidated idea about what kind of group they want to start, or even that they want to convene one at all. This workshop focuses on defining the kinds of community groups that feel welcoming, balanced, and right for you, as a facilitator, convener, or simply as a group member. I offer these services by donation, so please consider joining us, or sharing this information with someone who might benefit! https://lnkd.in/eum3khgz

On this week’s #socialimpactpowerchat, we sit down with Melanie Goldring, MSW, MSP, Director of Programs at AYUDA American Youth Understanding Diabetes Abroad, which is a non-profit volunteer-based organization that empowers youth to serve as agents of social change through diabetes education programs in communities around the world. In her position, which touches every part of the organization’s volunteerism and direct service efforts, Melanie shares how she uses metrics and data to ensure their organization is working toward their very ambitious goals - and how you can, too! Like so many of the people we chat with, Melanie hopes for a world where her organization is no longer needed. Until then, she’s pedal to the metal.

?? The Power of Hope: Bright Hope's Impact Beyond Services ?? At Bright Hope, we believe it’s not just about the services we provide—it’s about the connections we create and the hope we instil in people’s lives. This Christmas, we want to focus on the human side of what we do: ?????? The Moments of Change: Every week, we hear stories from individuals whose lives have been touched by our support cafés, counselling, or community events. From a family finding comfort through our day care to someone rediscovering their joy through a creative workshop, these moments drive us forward. ?? What’s at the Heart of Bright Hope? It’s the relationships we nurture and the simple acts of kindness that make a profound difference. This holiday season, we ask you to partner with us not just in funding services, but in strengthening the bonds of community. ?? Get Involved in a New Way: Instead of the usual donation appeal, we invite you to become a part of a story. Share your support, engage with us, or even visit us to see first hand how we’re making a difference. Together, we can transform lives—one connection at a time. #CommunityImpact #BuildingConnections #BrightHope #TransformLives #HopeThisChristmas

“I’m built different”- is my 12yr old son’s response to any and every compliment. And you know what, he is. We all are. You know what else is?? Innovations that are needed to close gaps, make a difference, and change lives. We have been wildly successful (check our data) at this. But the best part, we get to also support community organizations by making connections, providing business and innovation guidance, serving on boards, and showing up wherever they need us. At the Lexington Children's Theatre, we provide an educational space and creative outlet for all children, we provide sensory shows, and we meet our communities how they need us.
