Community Harmony Scarf

A creative project to spread hope & kindness around the world & a springboard for conversations about mental health. Looked after by Clare.

Every ribbon in the Scarf represents a person, everybody matters & everyone has something to contribute.
The Scarf began in 2017 & tells a story of our amazing global community.
I aim to make it long enough to wrap around King Power Stadium, home of @LCFC

@COPEScotland Thank you so much for sending me mine. I love it and the ones you gave me to share are delighting everyone I show them to. 😍

@RetirementTales How wonderful! Something to entice me back after my own Twitter retirement. Unfortunately, I'm late for lunch because I'm working at a holiday park for the summer. Have you saved any Pimms?

@msargyll @COPEScotland @abhscp @FyneHomes I like what Maff says. If we could stop being so afraid of each other and of making mistakes, if we could just relate to each other as fellow humans finding our way through this messy world together, we could create systems that are more truly comfortable and effective.

Thank you very much Twitter community for 8 wonderful years of friendship and support. The time has come for me to take a break from this arena. You can still follow the progress of the Scarf on Insta and FB. Much love to everyone. 💜

Magenta and green ribbons for a lovely couple from San Francisco who stopped to chat with me and my friend as we enjoyed a Friday morning of fun and freedom. Wonderful to recharge our batteries after a bit of a tough week.

The @chattycafe scheme reduces loneliness in our communities but it's much more than this.

We 💛 being part of the global Camerados movement, being alongside others, no fixing, disagreeing well, being a bit silly, asking someone who may be struggling to help you, knowing it's okay to be a bit rubbish sometimes it's all part of being more human. #CameradosIs10 🥳🎉🥳

[Foodbank Volunteering Community @foodbankvol]

I believe Clare that these 3 words affects the majority of ordinary people today if we are honest with ourselves.

LESS THAN PERFECT
Conversations about trusting your instincts and being good enough.

[Community Harmony Scarf @oadbyfsf]

A REASON TO GET UP

A conversation with someone devastated by the death of their partner. Having to get out of bed to care for their dog is what pulled them through the dark times.

[Community Harmony Scarf @oadbyfsf]

Stitches slipped and part of the HARBOUR section of the Scarf needed re-knitting.

An unexpected change of plans led to a fascinating and life-affirming conversation.

Sometimes life leads you to where you need to be without you realising. 💜

[Community Harmony Scarf @oadbyfsf]

Uplifting moments of connection.

[Community Harmony Scarf @oadbyfsf]

You are helping to make the world a better place. ✨️
