At The Linking Network we are so excited to share the wonderful news that we have been awarded National Lottery funding to support #SchoolsLinking in 25 local authorities so that children and young people can connect with others they wouldn’t normally meet.
We’re pleased to award £12 million from The UK Fund to support communities to come together - one of the commitments we made as part of our new strategy, #ItStartsWithCommunity. Thanks to #NationalLottery players, this will help people connect and shape their community’s future.
Bringing generations together this @agewithoutlimit Action Day is so important, thank you for this inspiring video @incommonlondon. #SeeAndBeSeen
💭 Did you know that ageist attitudes can develop in children as young as three? Bringing generations together can help dispel these stereotypes, providing a space for older people to be seen, understood and valued 🤝 #SeeAndBeSeen @Ageing_Better @agewithoutlimit
Today is @agewithoutlimit Action Day! This year's theme is #SeeAndBeSeen, this is your chance to do something to change the way we all think and act about age and ageing. Have you got plans for your own Action Day? Let us know! Check out local events: agewithoutlimits.org/events
Some lovely words from Mel, Programme Manager at @incommonlondon on the recent sprints that we’ve done together.
In 2023 we continued our partnership with InCommon to connect groups of young people with our older residents to learn and build friendships together ❤️ Read more about this story and its successful outcomes here: guinnesspartnership.com/news/bringing-…
"Bringing communities together can help us tackle the national loneliness crisis and it can be a lot of fun too!" Huge thanks to Sarena & Mel from the inspiring @incommonlondon team who shared learning today at our #AgeFriendly Housing & Community Network meeting!
WOW - we are over the moon to have won this. Every part of our content was co-created and led by the men we work with: From ideation to design, creation, production and completion - it was all by Switchback Trainees. And we couldn't be prouder! Thank you @BigGive
📱Now, we couldn’t forget our Social Media Expert Award: Give a round of applause to the digital dynamos who lit up timelines and captured hearts with their social media savvy. @Switchback_ldn, please take the stage! bit.ly/496GpWg
@incommonlondon Thank you for sharing your learnings, this will be a big help to other charities looking to take part in a Big Give match funding campaign! A big well done to you 🥂
Let's give a thunderous round of applause to these extraordinary winners, whose dedication, innovation, and passion continue to inspire us all. You can now read all of the case studies on our website: biggive.org/case-studies/.
That's all for this year, folks! We close the curtains on another #BigGiveAward celebration and want to thank all of the charities who took the time to submit a case study. It was extremely hard for our panel to select just 12 when there were so many amazing stories! Thank you ❤️
🧩Demonstrating Key Learnings: Embracing the lessons learned, this award celebrates growth and the journey toward making an even greater impact. @incommonlondon showed that the takeaways from the campaign were just as important to them as participating. bit.ly/491xDJ9
