(2/2) @BenYMLee, Director at @Sharedintel, explores the approach as a way to address disadvantage in communities hit by the quadruple whammy of austerity, then COVID-19, and now inflation and automation:

(1/2) New research by @sharedintel for Local Trust and 3ni, the national network for neighbourhood improvement, shows that neighbourhood working is once again being recognised by local authorities as an effective way to address disadvantage.

@ContactKingston Hi - I fixed the posts for a sapling in Blagdon park which had come loose and were dragging the tree over. But longer term they need replacing - can you sort it?

@PaulKohlerSW19 A great way to get into the data on this diverse constituency - your seat/my home. https://t.co/P9foLKeXft (I have links with @CommWealthFund but hand on heart this data is excellent)

[Local Trust @LocalTrust]

📢Email your MP and ask them to come to our drop in about the @CommWealthFund tomorrow.

Local Trust is calling on the new government to prioritise an expanded CWF. We’re holding this event so MPs can find out more.

@defenddigitalme @annelongfield @thetimes Yes they are often recorded in multiple databases and the agencies holding that fractured data cannot join it up, and this has consequences. This has been understood since Victoria Climbié a quarter century ago.

[Ben Lee @BenYMLee]

@SouthernRailUK There is a trainload of passengers just Departed Eastbourne to connect with the last London bound train at Warrior Square at 2153
Can u confirm the 2153 service is aware we are relying on them as the only way to get to London? Will they wait for us?

[Nicholas Poole OBE Hon. FCLIP @NickPoole1]

Way back in the early 2010's when museums were taking images of collections items, we talked about using 3D renders to generate art assets for virtual environments. Did anyone do it? Speaking to some game Devs who'd find a library of historically-accurate models rlly interesting!

[Ben Lee @BenYMLee]

@sheilabennett @biblioluke @NickPoole1 Exactly. Sitting right there for 60 years!

[Ben Lee @BenYMLee]

@DaveSJRowe @Sharedintel @ace_national Thanks Dave.

[Ben Lee @BenYMLee]

@petergaw @NottsLibraries @NottsCC @libsconnected @readingisgreat @Inspire_Carol Brilliant news Peter.

[Ben Lee @BenYMLee]

@biblioluke @NickPoole1 @Sharedintel @CILIPinfo @ace_national I hope this helps de-mystify futures research. And it was also great you were able to get stuck into the work in person. Thank you.

[Ben Lee @BenYMLee]

One of the most rewarding projects I've been involved in. The biggest message in here is that #futuresliteracy is an essential skill for everyone.

[Nicholas Poole OBE Hon. FCLIP @NickPoole1]

Thanks @biblioluke @ace_national for funding us to work with @SharedIntel & @BenYMLee on the fantastic new #ComeRainOrShine trend report and toolkit. Thanks to the public library staff that contributed, as well as our national steering group https://t.co/rirNspBfr9
