Influence
Organisations who provide reusable, affordable furniture intersect across welfare, health, wellbeing, housing, homelessness, employment, enterprise, community and waste issues. We lobby and sell the work of this unique type of community organisation to a wide range of stakeholders, commissioners and partners; shaping services, reducing costs and fundamentally, helping those most in need in our communities.
Inform
We read and interpret news, research, reports, policies and strategies, from national and Greater Manchester sources, advising of the risks to, and the opportunities for community organisations. Information is shared via newsletters, blog posts, case studies, local networking and peer support events.
