"St Leonards Sharing" Objectives

The “St Leonards Sharing” Consortium exists to generate optimum partnerships which deliver services in St Leonards on Sea that:

 

    1. Generate creativity in relation to how St Leonards becomes a more “caring and sharing place”. 

    2. Increase interaction between people who do not ordinarily meet, such that greater understanding and trust is built.

    3. Share resources within the community, not least of which is the encouragement of privately owned resources to be increasingly made available to others in the community by promoting initiatives such as streetbank etc and making resources offered on-line more accessible to those who do not use the internet.

    4. To creatively address the significance of the pier fire -working with the core values of truth, choice, reparation and reintegration of all involved into peaceful co-existence. (St Leonards Sharing Consortium member websites based on the pier fire issues include www.sussexcommunity.blogspot.com & www.peoplesjustice.org.uk

    5. Encourage the recognition, development and offering of skills in the community through the process of timebank brokerage, or similar initiatives.

    6. Promote wellbeing, initially with reference to the “5 ways of wellbeing” as published by the New Economics Foundation and combining these with learning from the St Leonards Community in the development of local wellbeing groups

    7. Share understanding of ways to work constructively with difference and empower people in handling their own differences with others such that 'systemic win' is in mind, opening up possibilities not just for 'win-win' between individuals but also for a stronger community for having worked through and learned from the differences between individuals.

    8. Encourage the development of local community-based caring structures, enabling individuals to have more choice in how their care needs are met.

We aim to support organisations (& foster a consortium) in being more effective and achieving something useful, whilst building community in the process.

 

All organisations join the consortium with a commitment to “deep democracy”* ways of working, whereby the dissenting voices to any proposal are valued and worked with creatively. Mediation is used as the next step for resolving any difficulties. The lead organisation, Freelending CIC, provides a facilitator for all meetings or invites another member organisation so to do, holds all funds for the consortium and is the final arbiter of any matters of difference between member organisations.
