Both words are important in answering that question.
This 20 day Update is always about where we are now. It is not about where we hope to be one day when the keys are delivered and, like any prospective purchaser, we move in to see what state the previous owner has left us to clear up before we can move our own things in.
Don’t worry: that is not being neglected, but it would be boring to describe all the steps that are being taken to get us to that point. You can safely leave the tedious things to the SCIO board, who will make sure all the necessary tasks are done in the right way.
There are much more exciting things to share now, not least because we know that moving-in day could be around a year away.
So what? What about now? What can you be expected to do other than to wait patiently? Is there a child in your house – or can you imagine a child after being cooped up with nothing to do – saying, “I’m bored! I don’t know what to do.” Well be bored no longer: There is something to do. It really will make a difference to the future and it will make it better.
There are two things that fit together:
What troubles you as you cope with Covid 19?
What ideas do you have that are worth sharing in order to help others cope?
As simple as that. Here is how we propose to match the need with the thought. It’s about sharing, which is the hallmark of community.
This Community, as you know by now, has a HEART. ❤️
Not merely a lot of boxes called houses or flats, in which we all keep ourselves to ourselves and suffer in silence.
We are about to launch an interactive programme of questions and suggestions, ideas and activities, encouraging you to become involved NOW with other people like you, helping each other create a better normal around our three themes you may know by heart:
Well-Being
Learning & Enterprise
Culture & Heritage
Health Business Leisure Sport Puzzles Gardening Entertainment Advice
You can add to the list which is as long as you want to make it, because above all it is about YOU – which is US, ALL TOGETHER, helping each other.
Invite your friends to join in as well. Look out for details about to appear on our website and social media channels.
And don’t forget: if you have not already responded to the invitation to become a member of our Charity Heart of Newhaven Community SCIO making all this possible, do that NOW too, using the link here and following instructions.
Also keep checking the website and socials!
In another 20 days we’ll tell you more precisely what we are going to do next.
