@maartjegeels Hoi Maartje, ik werk in de Schotse Hooglanden en werk met een project rondom menstuatie armoede - als je het interesant vind om daar een keertje over te praten?

Live in #muiroford and fancy winning an amazon voucher? Snap a picture of how you see Muir of Ord - a fantastic competition organised by James @Beard_Mode_On #highlandaspiringcommunities #ESIF #MYMOO

If you have been following me, and wondering what we do - I coordinate a project to empower those most vulnerable in deprived communities. We do this to build stronger connections between communities and Community Partnerships, who have been tasked to reduce inequalities.

[Elisa de Waal @ElisaHACP]

We spoke to the community and found that there was a need for better mental health provision in #Ardersier. If you live there, you can join this free training, made possible by the Aspiring Communities Fund #ESIF as part of the #Highlandaspiringcommunities project. @InvernessCE

The brilliant Lucy @engagehighland last Wednesday hosting a foraging workshop for the #highlandaspiringcommunities project. Teaching about food that you can access outdoors - but only do this when you KNOW what you are doing, particularly when it comes to mushrooms! #ESIF

A fantastic day of building community capacity this Sunday - Thanks to all who came. We raised awareness and £130 for the Skye Cycle Way, and showed that cycling can be experienced by everyone! #highlandaspiringcommunities #ESIF @BroadfordStrath @CycleWithoutAge

[Elisa de Waal @ElisaHACP]

Learned about @MyPickleUK - a great tool for anyone wanting to learn about available help and support. Just type in what you need help with (Diabetes, Debt or Mental Health for example) and find out quickly (and ad-free!) what is available. https://t.co/sCDr9qJRn6

[Elisa de Waal @ElisaHACP]

Today I'm distributing packs of sanitary provisions in #Skye to help alleviate #periodpoverty. Thanks @CFINEAberdeen for making this possible. #highlandaspiringcommunities #ESIF #HTSI
