The future is local

In 2010 we held an event on the school car park. We set out our stall, and by using interesting ways to capture your thoughts we asked a lot of questions. Your feedback then, helped to shape and inform the commuity centre, and your presence boosted our determination to push on with the plan to hold onto a community building for future generations.
In 2006 we glimpsed at possibilities in the future
Created in 2010 to show how our daily needs are an inseperable part of the bigger local ‘resilience’ picture, if only we could adapt / adopt different daily practices. The Charity has identified simple ways to include more of us in that ‘food chain’ dilemma and is making it practical and achievable for our combined actions to contribute to a thriving local environment.
Created in 2010 – and still the same plan on the ground, today

Things we did earlier 2007/08

In 2008 we made a film about ourselves

We advertised the film widely and through the local press. Approximately 80 people came to see the film and listen to us as we explained why we felt that ‘community-ownership’ was both necessary, and achievable.

Funding for the film was the combination of private donations and a grant from UNLtd, the social enterprise that supports social entrepreneurs. The film was made by Rob Fairlee supported by Marion Pearse [unltd award winner] and LIz Barnet provided the narative.

It is our hope to relocate the film.
