Together under one sky. United Nations Day for the Eradication of Poverty, 2025

Delighted to launch our latest Mutual Mentoring Project last week. This time we are pairing with GP’s at the Deep End and are excited for the months ahead.

Last week we were excited exhibitors at the Binks Hub event, ‘Poverty, Precarity and Community Empowerment’. We were sharing the progress so far on our digital archive and quilt - all wrapped up in our living room installation, ‘Come Away In.’

Please share with orgs who may be interested! @uoe-sps.bsky.social @thirdsectordg.bsky.social @cyrenians.bsky.social @edfuturesinstitute.bsky.social @fifegingerbread.bsky.social @evalsupscot.bsky.social @povertytruthscot.bsky.social @childlightgcsi.bsky.social @impactarts.bsky.social

What should a good society look, sound and feel like? Throughout spring, we spent time in Swansea, Coatbridge and Manchester with members of the @povertytruthscot.bsky.social Community exploring this question together. Their reflections became this moving poem: carnegieuk.org/blog/lasting...

We’re proud members of @grippuk.bsky.social and were glad to host Susanna today on her trip round the UK, talking through ideas for the work ahead 😊

Just back from a great 24 hours with @carnegieuk.bsky.social and Poverty Truth Network talking about social contracts and what needs to change.

We were at the Hamiltonhill Claypits Open Day today making new friends and talking about the cost of living crisis and what gives us hope.

Excited to share news on the work we are doing with the wonderful Binks Hub - creating a digital quilt to share the story of our community and movement for change.
