Happy Monday all! 
We have a lot going on at the moment, and as part of our Community Nest you can join us for it all! We just wanted to drop in and make sure you’re in the loop with all of our upcoming events. Why not sign up to a workshop, open hour or webinar? They’re all free. 

Having trouble submitting an expense? Need help remembering *that thing we mentioned* during the onboarding call? New admins need a tour of the platform? 

Join our monthly drop in to have your q’s answered in one place. Happening the last Wednesday of every month, the next one is:

Book a free, half-hour slot with the Social Change Nest governance team next Friday 3rd October. Bring your draft policies, real life examples and questions about decision making, safeguarding or tax implications - we’ll work through it together.

Governance isn’t just for big businesses -  it’s about working together effectively, in a way that brings the best out of your group. With social impact and investment pro Jacy Stewart, we’ll cover different non-profit structures, what they mean in practice, and how to start thinking about the right fit for your group.

Building Blocks

Making social change requires energy and passion - but sustaining that work takes resources, strategies, and supportive ways of working. This series of workshops and peer labs brings together a small group of likeminded changemakers and our experienced facilitators Mariama and Inderjit to explore practical approaches to financial sustainability,  governance and team work.

As a whole, Building Blocks is a free six week course, with three workshops and three peer labs. If you attend each Wednesday, you’ll gain a holistic understanding of these foundational skills. If you can’t attend the full course, you can register for individual workshops. 

In a world where crises feel constant and the demands on community organisers, volunteers, and social impact workers seem endless, burnout has become far too common. But rest is not a luxury – it’s a vital, radical act of care for ourselves and our communities. This in person session is a sincere invitation to pause, breathe, and reflect together on how doing less can actually do more for us – and the movements we’re part of.
