I’m Jonathan, I’m here to connect with the community and help support local causes. I work in partnership with many Wellingborough Organisations on this site and to coordinate our forums.
This month’s Community Resilience Forum was about ‘Inclusion’ to see what changes we can enable in our community, to help everyone become more resilient during the cost-of-living crisis.
Thank you to the 7 people joined us for a lively interactive presentation that included plenty of discussion on Zoom. We looked at what inclusion is, and how it works with diversity. Delegates shared their views and stories.
We also networked and shared upcoming activities and events; and talked about how we can co-operate with each other. A good forum, next one is on Friday 25th November at 2pm, register at https://wellingborough.org/site/community-resilience-forum/

October is Black History Month and its theme is ‘Time for Change: Action Not Words.’ And that is exactly what we want the people and organisations of Wellingborough to embrace.
November starts UK Disability History Month, from Wednesday 16th November to Friday 16th December. The theme is Disability, Health and Well Being. Everyone should be included; we need to make sure this happens.
The themes of both history months look forward and strive for change, that’s why this month’s Community Resilience Forum is about ‘Inclusion’ to see what changes we can enable in our community, to help everyone become more resilient during the cost-of-living crisis.

Following on from last month’s Community Resilience Forum, where we looked at what the Cost of Living Crisis was. This month was all about what we can do to make a difference to help people to cope with rising costs during the cost of living crisis.
Five joined us for a short presentation and a discussion on Zoom, where Jonathan, Co-op Member Pioneer for Wellingborough, lead a very engaging and lively session.
