“When I would feel overwhelmed by what was going on in the world, I would just say to myself: 'Hope is a discipline. ' We have been so busy across our youth work this week, providing places of HOPE. Proud of Mo & his team. “The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory.” Over 100 youth supported through our co designed Summer programming, funded by @EsmeeFairbairn “liberation is no small task—it is appropriately daunting for miraculous beings. it is a gift, to be given such undeniable purpose, such immense odds. hold each other tight, and let’s do this work.” Thank you Mo for being such an exceptional & caring leader. Helen Bushell “I see fascism. I’m writing because I’m hoping the people who read it don’t need dollops of hope or good endings but are reading so that they’ll know what to fight, and fight even when the fight seems hopeless.” Lib Peck Gareth Plumb Ugo Ikokwu The Lankellychase Foundation

'What Move Movements' was an inquiry process with 8 UK social movements, and commissioned by The Lankellychase Foundation and accompanied by Recrear. Ultimately it was a journey about what it means to be vulnerable in philanthropy and movement building and the work we need to do to truly strengthen and heal movement-funder relationships. The publication tells this story and offers tools to navigate the power dynamics, the hyper-productivity culture and the struggle to be vulnerable through our difficult moments of change. Read this moving publication here: https://lnkd.in/evDpY6sq A big thank you to all the people/organisations who gave their time, energy and thoughtfulness to this process: Breathe UK, NEON, Tipping Point UK, Racial Justice Network, Rad HR, Tax Justice Network, War on Want, Imkaan, The Advocacy Academy, Healing Justice London (HJL) and the team at The Lankellychase Foundation And to the team from Recrear who carried this process: Carolina Neu Emilia Gonzalez Yasmine Zeid Quime Williams and Gioel Gioacchino (editing) And to Nathalí Cedeño for the beautiful design and illustration of the publication.

Last week, we were invited to Oxford by Marmalade Festival and Skoll Foundation World Forum to lead a session about participation in investment decisions alongside our friends The Curiosity Society. In top hats and sequins and with prizes at the ready, we delivered a “game show” experience exploring our audience members' appetite for risk - the same thing we did with Barking and Dagenham residents two years ago when they were building the investment policy for the UK's first community-led investment fund. We love sharing our work with funders and academics from around the world. Thanks again Marmalade!
