We had another inspiring day at the Regional Mobilisation Day in Rochester, bringing the cohort together to reflect on their progress, build engagement skills, and plan for meaningful action. A big thank you to our incredible guests - Amanda Logie (Rochester Community House), Karen Corr (Jumpleads nfp) and Ash Lythgo FF'20 - who shared invaluable insights on community engagement, good governance, and more! The group continue to build on their ideas and drive positive change across our region! It was also very exciting to see the freshly completed Silo Art in Rochester! 🎨 As we approach the end of the year, don't forget to secure your tickets for the upcoming Fairley Leadership Program Graduation. Let’s come together to celebrate the accomplishments of this year’s cohort and cheer them on as they continue their community leadership journey! 🎉 https://lnkd.in/gCbmE7fs

This week, we embarked on a shared journey of discovery and experimentation at the 2024 Regional Mobilisation Summit. Through thoughtful dialogue, curiosity and collaboration, we explored governance obstacles and shared successes for achieving sustainable community organisations. 🌱 Scott Ko guided us through sessions that invited open reflection on our communities’ challenges - creating a safe space for ideas to emerge, take shape, and evolve. 🤝 Samuel Wilson inspired us to listen deeply, find common ground, and make space for diverse voices, reminding us that true progress comes when we come together. 🌟 Community Panel - A highlight of the day was hearing from Jenny Foott, Daryl Bennett, and Doc McDonald, whose diverse perspectives illuminated how community governance can take shape. Their stories reminded us that our challenges, though varied, are opportunities for collective growth and action. As the day came to a close, participants prepared to mobilise their ideas, committed to making lasting change. Thank you to everyone who joined us in this important experiment. Our work is just beginning... #gmclsummit2024
