Quartet Community Foundation aims to change people's lives for the better across the West of England. They do this by enabling a wide variety of donors to fund projects that make a difference where people live and work.
Each year they hold an Annual Celebration where they invite a number of community groups to showcase a sample of the work that has been done as a result of the generosity of our donors.
So on 16th October 2012, North Bristol Advice Centre (NBAC) took advantage of their invitation to this year’s annual celebration to showcase their services and latest initiatives to over 140 guests.Naturally, the Connect <> Lockleaze project was highlighted as one of their most exciting new initiatives. Hopefully, the project’s co-operative nature will help to inspire individuals and organisations interested in supporting the wellbeing of their local communities.
Earlier in the day, NBAC attended ‘The Power of Partnership’, a free event held by Business in the Community and Bristol ProHelp to encourage businesses and community groups to meet and forge working partnerships.
Once again, Connect <> Lockleaze was mentioned (a perfect example of that the event was designed to encourage!) and the HR Manager at Rolls Royce (a Lockleaze boy himself!) suggested we contact their Head of Education to see if there were any opportunities that could be explored. We will!
