We are delighted to share some exciting news with you - Glasgow is officially group number 11, and their first meal is being confirmed for November!
We will keep all of you posted as they embark on their Local Welcome journey, and hopefully you’ll get to exchange stories and advice at a leader check-in soon!
If you have any friends or family in Glasgow, please send them a link and invite them to sign up here (along with your glowing words on how amazing Local Welcome meals are): https://www.localwelcome.org/get-involved
If you are a physical Soldo cardholder - and feel comfortable doing so - we are happy for your Soldo Card to be ‘shared’ via digital wallet with another approved (safeguarding trained & disclosure checked) Local Welcome leader.
This means you can share the physical card between 3 x approved leaders, using your digital wallets (1x physical cardholder and 2x digital wallet cardholders).
We’ve tested this with a couple of groups and they’ve found it useful for sharing shopping responsibilities. We are therefore pleased to release this guidance more widely here: Can I ‘share’ my Soldo Card with other leaders?
Please make sure to read the instructions carefully before making any decisions. As always, reach out to us if you have any questions!
