Creating Ripples

This toolkit is designed for everyone who has set up a community-led project which aims to make a positive impact for both people and the planet.

Setting up your project is a great achievement, but to be successful we need people to not just know about it, but engage with it. Whether your project is a repair workshop, a sharing library, or a community garden, the goal remains the same: to empower those leading the project to connect with more people in the local community, inspire engagement with these initiatives, and support successful projects— creating a ripple effect of positive impact.

This toolkit offers practical, actionable ideas to help you build community connections, spread awareness about your initiative, and inspire others to get involved and take meaningful action.

Make it joyful: Focus on the positive outcomes of your project, such as saving money, fostering connections, and creating joy.
