Totally inclusive these events are open to all and enable local people to come together and have conversations, discuss ideas, connect people and plan / deliver local projects. No agenda or structure these are informal and are normally Link4Coffee or Link4Drinks events. There is much that needs work in our communities and when we create alternative solutions using our combined resources we can achieve significant results.

Having conversations once more

Where can we go with no hidden agenda and just have conversations with other people who live close to use? Whether it be to get out of the house, for connection, to meet someone... whether in business or not... just to meet and engage. Conversations can take many forms, finding solutions for things going on in our lives will always be the root of them... whether it's loneliness, getting a job done you don't have the skills to do yourself, learning new things, or talking things through to get a better idea about something... everything starts with a conversation...

Bring people together to discuss local challenges

There are so many local challenges that we either don't hear about in our community. This many be because we are not directly effected by them, that we are unaware the problem exists or that we think someone else is taking care of it already... i.e. it's someone else's problem. Coming together and raising these challenges has to be a good initiative...

Brainstorm new ideas and innovative alternatives

Once we begin to come together and discuss issues and challenges... find out what is not working in the community we can begin to put our minds together to seek alternative solutions. Get creative bringing together the people we know, the skills, the financial resources... and plan how we might achieve more... differently.

Facilitate & Deliver Community Projects

Within the Link4Growth toolset are services to enable us to be able to create documents to support any projects that are decided upon. Simple websites can also be produced to support the projects which makes it easy to share what is happening, who is involved, how people can get in touch and the successes that are being achieved.

Bringing together into one place easily and effectively and being able to share / edit these documents amongst the team is an essential part of rolling out projects. All this is provided as part of the community communications hub.
