What we’ve been focusing on this week
- Preparing for Cardiff and Liverpools meals this Sunday
- Learning from our amazing Local Welcome community at our design forums
- Taking part in branding workshops with Nice and Serious (the creative agency that’s awarded us pro-bono support for the next year 😍)
- Hiring our Bi-lingual Digital Marketing Specialist, Azad, and welcoming him to the team! We’re so pleased he’s joining us and can’t wait for you to see his work as he breathes new life into our social media 😁
(Some of) what we’re focusing on next week
- Preparing for and delivering our last design forum. If you haven’t already, please book here to attend and share your thoughts and ideas - we’d like to have as many voices in the room as possible!
- Taking a moment out to like and share some of the beautiful content that Azad already has planned to post on our social media channels. Please help us spread the word about Local Welcome by joining us in doing this! If you’re not sure where to find us, our social media accounts are linked below:
Photo of the week
I couldn’t find a new photo to share this week. However, I spotted a Derby leader recommending a film they’ve seen in the Derby leader group chat and thought I’d share it with the wider Local Welcome community:
Title: The Old Oak
Their review: “We went to see The Old Oak film today. Really recommend it, particularly because it involves community cooking and eating together along with a good dose of Ken Loach anger.”
So there you go…you never know when you might open the Local Welcome weeknotes and discover you’ve become an anonymous film critic 📽️🧐
Thank you for reading, and happy weekend!
