Resourceful Communities Partnership’s national programme of events on communities and living well

In the face of significant challenges, collective action and shared knowledge are essential.

The last few years have been very challenging, with many crises impacting on our communities. It has even led to the introduction of the term ‘permacrisis’ in our language. Getting together to reflect and share good ideas and great work can energise and further build collective efforts for a better life for all in our communities.

‘Aspiration, Inspiration, Perspiration’ is a programme of online events which is seeking to do just that; aspiration meaning ambition in tackling challenges and pressing for change; inspiration – acquiring great ideas and knowledge of what works and can make a difference; and perspiration – starting out, adapting, and keeping going in hard times. There is great work going on in Wales driven by passion and commitment which is always good to share.

The Programme will involve presentations, discussions and workshops led by citizens, community groups and people from across the sectors who work with them. Later in the series we will live stream interviews from our communities to showcase their work. The Programme will cover many issues relevant to our communities and the professionals working with them: campaigning, Asset Based Community Development, leadership, organisational culture, circular economies, community assets, and social enterprises.

Together for Change is excited to announce the launch of its insightful report on the Aspiration, Inspiration, Perspiration programme, which provides an in-depth look at the eight online events held between March and June 2024. You can find all the details in the latest press release on the programme or go straight to the report.

Together for Change (TfC) is curating the national programme of events, with Pembrokeshire Association of Voluntary Services (PAVS), for the Resourceful Communities Partnership (RCP) of Wales.
