@right_hereUK Exciting news .... hard fought for exciting news. Getting this right will NEED our involvement and advice.... communities all over the UK are the experts... hey Labour Government ..... We,re Right Here!
We’re so pleased to see the Government include our ask of a Community Right to Buy in their new English Devolution Bill.
This could be genuinely transformative. We’re looking forward to working with the Government and MPs to make sure this genuinely empowers local people who want more control over the things that matter to them.
I am really happy I am involved in this campaign, it is hopeful, makes me feel change is possible. It is a message full of understanding and humanity.... who,s listening? https://t.co/CobqeNBmA9

@ArchHFund@StretfordPHall@HeritageFundUK What an honour to be in this company - and for Sheffield to host one of the 19 Heritage Development Trusts. An amazing, busy, inspiring two days.
"Mission-led government is about partnership...devolving power to communities...giving people the responsibility they deserve." @Keir_Starmer
That's exactly why Labour's commitment to a Community Right to Buy is a great step - and why we're calling for a Community Power Act.
@right_hereUK @OurFutureGY @HeeleyTrust @wearenewlocal When your job (life?) Is spent in the here and now and worrying about what next.... its the moments reflecting on the journey with others that remind you ... we,re doing OK! Met some really lovely folk in Grimsby.
attended the @Reform event on devo in Manchester. It was good: Laura Shoaf described a funding system with rules and restrictions that prevents working in the way they want with communities .... a glass ceiling we've experienced! A Community Power Act needed? #righthere
Here’s one of our campaign leaders @Hopper_Claude reacting to the Government’s new funding for 55 towns.
👍 Great that communities will have a seat at the table
🇬🇧But let’s unleash community power everywhere, not just in these chosen few towns
Share if you agree!
I love this and I am just so exasperated all at the same time... the treacle we have to wade through feels particularly thick just now. Charlotte reminds me to be positive!!!
If you're into stories of succeeding against the odds, people coming together to beat the system, and cute lambs, you might like those about the remarkable Charlotte @fordhallfarm.

I've not been involved in a podcast before. Thoughtful and enthusiastic questions from Compass team and members: not a challenging view of community power but a great start of a conversation.
