The times they are a changing...
What's new in The Hive Mind...
After years of sitting on this, I've moved away from small businesses to working with companies in the VCSE sector.
And even after making this decision nearly four months ago, it still feels massive talking about it!
Why this change?
One of my core values as a human is about giving back. But, I can't give back to everyone! So this is the next best thing 🙌
By working with charities and CICs I can support the people that support others in their hour of need.
Why work with me?
Well, I've lived experience.
I am a director at @calmconnections. I've volunteered with @cr_uk, so I get how charities and CICs work. Not to mention sitting on grant panels and more!
Not only that, I've got lived experience of domestic abuse, and mental & physical health issues. I understand what the support of the VCSE means to service users.
But my biggest USP?
I am a Yorkshire lass! I can do something with nothing!
The VCSE sector is stretched, so I know how to help you make the best of a small budget. I understand that the smaller charities rely on the local community knowing who they are.
I also bring with me a network of experts ready to help if we need an extra pair of hands.
I am proud to volunteer with @teamtdas to trial this, so watch this space for more news!
This place will still be all about what is happening in my world, but the plan is to have some paid-for content specifically for smaller charities, etc., who cannot afford my full package…
