LONDON BOROUGH OF SOUTHWARK TAKES ON DIGITAL COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT TOOL

Visit: www.trygve.co.uk

The Southwark Neighbourhood Watch Association, together with Swedish community safety app Trygve, are pioneering a new, digital method of local engagement to connect communities within the London borough of Southwark.

Trygve is a free app that provides a specially designed digital platform where users can collaborate, empowering community members to support each other and work together to solve local issues and combat crime.

Marcus Suitor, Secretary of Southwark Neighbourhood Watch Association said “Trygve is a terrific app that’s free and will surely benefit everyone in the area.”

“We are hoping it enhances communication between members, but also encourages the younger members of the borough to play more of an active role in Neighbourhood Watch. We hope everyone who lives and works in Southwark gets involved.”

The app features an interactive map where users can see and share local incidents and information. Users are able to communicate with each other and contribute to posted events, capturing ground-level intelligence in real time. There is also a personal safety alarm built into the app that alerts other users when triggered.

Trygve is hugely successful in Sweden and is now available in the UK, free of charge. It is available on iOS through the App Store and Android through Google Play. There is also a computer version of the app for non-smartphone users.

“This is such an interesting project for Trygve, where we are gaining an insight on how communities in very large and complex cities can band together and utilize each other more,” Sheona Urquhart Trygve UK Manager said.

“We are aiming for a very big and positive culture shift where members of the community feel they can turn to each other and trust each other more.”

Everyone in the Southwark area is encouraged to take part. The Southwark Neighbourhood Watch Association has already created groups in the app that community members can join.

MAUDSLEY LEARNING AT WORK

MAUDSLEY LEARNING AT WORK

‘The gender divide – mental health in the workplace’

Friday 18th November from 8:45am until 12:00pm
ORTUS learning and events centre, London

The recent report published by BITC on Mental Health in the Workplace, highlighted that in general men are less confident than women in talking about mental health in the workplace – as employees they are less likely to discuss issues with their manager and as line managers they are less enthusiastic about training in mental health.

As part of Men’s Health Awareness Month, Maudsley Learning at Work will explore the reasons surrounding this and the ways in which employers can support workplace practices that promote openness around mental health for all. With expert insights and a format that enables peer to peer discussions we will discuss the role of the line manager in relation to supporting mental in the workplace and how getting this right will have a positive impact on business goals as well as individual mental health and team performance. This briefing will be followed by a taster session of our Workplace Mental Health Training

Agenda
8:45 – 9:30 Introductory Briefing with coffee/tea & working breakfast
8:45 – 9:15 Introduction and panel discussion
9:15 – 9:30 Audience Q&A
9:30 – 10:00 Break and Networking
10:00 – 12:00 Workplace mental health training taster

Link Age Southwark

By Admin SE5 Forum27 October, 2016Forum news

Link Age Southwark

Link Age Southwark is a vibrant local charity providing friendly volunteer support to over 500 isolated, older people in Southwark.

Could you volunteer in your local area to make an older person’s day? Just an hour of your time can make a big difference to a lonely or isolated older person.

You can help out by:

Visiting an older person in their home for a chat
Helping to run one of our activity groups
Giving an older person a lift to an activity group or appointment
Helping an older person with light gardening or household odd jobs

You could help an older person like May, 98, who attends our volunteer-led social groups. She says, “I was bored and lonely before I learned of Link Age Southwark. I’m very grateful to their volunteers for bringing joy to my life.”

We are working to make Southwark a more inclusive and age-friendly borough and would love volunteers in Camberwell to be part of this. Volunteering with us is very rewarding – you will enjoy new experiences, meet new people in your local community and have the satisfaction of supporting older people to live happy, fulfilled lives.

To volunteer, please email info@linkagesouthwark.org or call 020 8299 2623.

Please see our website http://linkagesouthwark.org/ for more information.

Five ways to re-vamp an shirt!

Five ways to re-vamp an shirt!

Rather than wasting your money in the shops, look no further than the back of your wardrobe for that old shirt. Bring it along to our creative workshop to discover inspiring ways to create a fresh look, or a lovely gift from the things you already have.

The ‘Upcycling’ workshop is being held on Monday 31 Oct from 12.30 to 4.30 pm at the Southwark Integrated Waste Management Facility, hosted by Veolia Southwark and Love Your Clothes, as part of the Recycle for London campaign. The workshop will follow an introductory site tour of the plant.

Learn from the experts, share sewing, repair, and upcycling skills creating something new from that unloved old shirt. Getting creative with your clothes isn’t just about saving cash: it can give you a fabulous style or unique gift that nobody else can match.

Lunch and refreshments will be provided. Spaces are limited so please RSVP to jeyda.keski@veolia.com by Friday 28 October 2016.

Don’t forget to bring with you a shirt you’d like to upcycle!
