What would it look like for communities to have real power in shaping their neighbourhoods?

Following the passage of the English Devolution and Community Empowerment Act, new neighbourhood governance arrangements are being rolled out across the country. Join Community Organisers and We're Right Here for these FREE webinar, which is a practical, interactive session exploring what this means in practice.

We’ll introduce the core principles behind community-powered governance, discuss real-world examples like Community Covenants, Neighbourhood Assemblies, and Popular Assemblies run through Humanity Project, and create space to reflect on what this could look like in your area. This webinar is for anyone interested in sharing power more meaningfully at a local level.

Connect with unity movements from across the UK and be inspired by their stories and progress.
Discover practical tools and strategies you can take back to your city and put into action.
Let this Summit ignite fresh momentum for social, cultural, and spiritual transformation where you are.

We know the change that is needed. A profound shift from a system that does things to people to one that does things with them. We know this because change is happening: the public, health, voluntary and community sector working differently - and we see the positive outcomes. Yet doing to is deeply embedded. We all want things to change but somehow the system resists and carries on with business as usual. And so the problems just get worse.

The DoWith Assembly is a national grassroots gathering for anyone who wants to be part of a movement for radical and urgent transformation across the whole system, not just in pockets. Not a standard conference with keynote speakers and panels, the content will be shaped on the day by everyone who attends. The themes we could explore include getting a DoWith Charter launched, setting up local DoWith groups, creating a strong online presence, holding DoWith bootcamps. But ultimately the agenda is in your hands! So, come ready to connect, create and collaborate on making DoWith a reality here and now.

Stronger Things is an annual opportunity to get together with the changemakers in place: local government, health partners, VCSEs, funders and the voluntary sector all under one roof for a day of inspiration, connection and learning – all focused on imagining and delivering community power in places across the UK.
Sessions include; How do we build local economies that work for people and place? Putting neighbours back into neighbourhoods. How can place-based budgeting help us build the public sector of the future? What does it take to sustain community-led initiative? How do we create the conditions for rigorous and actionable learning in place-based working? Exploring personal stories to strengthen community bonds. Digital frontiers in resident-led policymaking. Making Neighbourhood Health Neighbourhood-Led.
 

CRI invite you to join a live, virtual conference on Wednesday June 24 & Thursday June 25 from 8:30 am - 2:00 pm Pacific Time. (1630-2200 BST)

CRI are bringing together educators, researchers, community leaders, wellness professionals, and changemakers from across the country to explore innovative, trauma-informed approaches that strengthen individuals, systems, and communities.

This dynamic two-day virtual conference will highlight emerging research, advancements in neuroscience, predictive brain processing, and cutting-edge strategies that move the science of resilience into practical, real-world applications.

Bringing groups of people together with shared interests and building bridges between different groups. This webinar will be led by Nick Gardham in Partnership with the Jo Cox Foundation, who lead The Great Get Together, an annual celebration bringing communities together.
One of the key parts of our Community Organising Framework is connecting communities. We will hear stories of how we have done this as part of our work within the community and how by doing this you realise that, as Jo Cox once said “we are far more united and have far more in common than that which divides us.”
We will hear from our colleagues and friends at the Jo Cox Foundation about the work they do to connect communities across the UK as part of their annual Great Get Together in June and the stories of connection they hear up and down the country as part of their More in Common Network.
