Creativity is... Community
This June, the creative prompts are brought to you by Month of Community!
“The Month of Community is a time to come together to celebrate everything that makes our communities great. Thirteen organisations work in partnership to help shine a light on all of the amazing things happening in our communities and encourage connection with each other and the places where we live. Millions of people take part throughout June to say cheers to volunteers, connect with their neighbours, welcome refugees, support carers, raise awareness of loneliness, or make a positive difference where they live. Choose how you’d like to join in, or do a few, it’s up to you. Here’s a video to explain more!
Find out how you can get involved at MonthofCommunity.com
This week’s Month of Community partners are Refugee Week, 17th - 23rd June / Windrush Day, 22nd June / The Great Get Together, 21st - 23rd June
“We believe in the power of community to shape a positive future for people and planet – it all starts with our connection to others. Creativity can help us to break down barriers and prompt those conversations and moments of connection helping to build a sense of community.”

What would you gift to your community?
Share
Share your thoughts with those in your community and invite them to add to the picture. You could start small by sharing with a neighbor or friend and ask them to pass it on, or get a group together and think about any actions that could be taken forward.
