Interesting thread here - if only there was a national social enterprise doing #SomethingConstructive revitalising community spaces whilst bringing together tradespeople and NEET/at risk young people to share intergenerational skills? 🤔🫡

I need some input on this one. I know many of you will have some good ideas, but I'm sure there are also unintended consequences and moral hazards. I'm thinking about how we restore pride to working class communities and address the casual indifference to decline.

A delivery of wood chipping today led to lots of laughs down in the community garden. Volunteers from our local @stockporthomes hostels and the brilliant S&A from @viyproject helped with litter picking, spreading chipping. If anyone wants any chipping, we’ve lots left over!
