SUMMARY:Growing Communities Networking
DESCRIPTION:Join Plants & Mind on Monday 9th February for their next Growing Communities Networking at Cherry Tree Nursery – It’s FREE to attend and there will be CAKE!! But please do remember to register your places so that we make sure there is enough for everybody! \nAs we will be heading into Emotional Health Week\, 19th to 23rd February\, Lorraine from SWAD (Sex With A Difference – https://www.swaddorset.org/ ) will be talking about how Emotional Health is shaped – not only by how we think and cope\, but by how we connect. Intimacy and sexuality play a meaningful role in helping people feel seen\, soothed\, and emotionally regulated—yet they are often left out of conversations about wellbeing. \n“Depression and anxiety can profoundly affect how we experience connection—changing our desire for closeness\, our comfort with touch\, and our relationship with our own bodies.” \nThis talk explores how intimacy and sex can support emotional health by fostering connection\, reducing loneliness\, enhancing self-worth\, and supporting nervous system regulation. It also acknowledges that emotional health is not dependent on sexual activity\, and that experiences of desire\, closeness\, and touch naturally change with stress\, anxiety\, depression\, trauma\, and life circumstances. \nLorraine from SWAD’s down-to-earth approach towards a topic that’s often treated as taboo\, will move you from dreading opening a “can of worms” to “embracing the squelch!” \nBook your free place

SUMMARY:Developing a Budget
DESCRIPTION:Are you a voluntary organisation that hasn’t yet developed a budget? Then this is the course for you. This training is designed to help your organisation plan its finances\, create budgets\, and forecast cash flow. \nBudgeting for activities is similar to budgeting at home: you calculate your income and expenses to determine if you have a surplus or a deficit. If you have a deficit\, you need to increase revenue or reduce expenses to avoid debt. Budgeting will help you understand: \n\nExpenses: What you need to run your activities.\nIncome: Whether your current income is sufficient to continue your activities.\nCash Flow: Identifying where you may be short of cash.\n\nThis will help you determine how much money you need to raise to keep your organisation running smoothly and assess the sustainability of your work. The budgeting process also provides an opportunity to explore new fundraising methods and identify potential savings. \nThis training and workbook offer a basic overview of developing your budget\, making it suitable for newly emerging community groups. \nBook Here
