In January @DrChrisRBaker set out the Radical Hope agenda that we are pursuing this election year. Read more about this project here https://t.co/2ZuRx5E0Yc @paradoxbridge@rosiedawson @DrBarber_Rowell @mariacpower @SpacesofHope @LiverpoolHopeUK
So excited to be gathered with 200 people at the amazing @NUFC to launch Newcastle as a Living Wage City 🎉🎉🎉 such a pivotal moment for our city as we all pull together to actively tackle poverty!
Great to meet with @MayorJD today, as we begin to meet with all mayoral candidates ahead of our Mayoral assembly on the 22nd April. Encouraging discussions on cost of living crisis, housing & education. Still time to get your tickets for the assembly (link pinned on our page)
On 18th March @valbarron9 will host a "Radical Hope" gathering with partners in the North East, responding to issues of poverty & injustice. You can read an intro to this work from Val on our blog https://t.co/iOHAq2MNAc @DrChrisRBaker @paradoxbridge@togetherdurham@nclcathedral
This International Women's Day we recognise the tireless - often unpaid - work of thousands of North East women dedicated to making life better for their communities
The importance of recognising their invaluable contribution was highlighted in our recent report ⤵️ #IWD2024
We’re already seeing Warm Spaces do amazing things together through community organising, so if you’re involved in one then please do come along to these and be inspired and equipped!
Challenging unjust structures is a mark of mission that we struggle with. 1/3 of babies and children in @DioceseofDurham and @NclDiocese are growing up in poverty. This report from @nechildpoverty has achievable actions.
Free training on roles & responsibilities of Trustees & management of church-led community projects. Delivered by Connected Voice, funded by CTD in-person training on 7th March, 10am-2pm, or same content delivered online over two sessions on 5th and 12th March, 6:30-8:30pm.
Training will cover legal structures, roles and responsibilities, and how to consider the organisation’s vision and strategy to develop projects further.
