If you are from a city, low income or on benefits, what would you like to see in your community?

And / or what would it take for you to become I terested in community projects?

Would one off fun days be more appropriate than long standing community 'clubs' (I'm talking about coffee mornings, communal gardens, as well as more traditional clubs)

How would you see the advertisement of these clubs? online? leaflets? shop windows? posted through the door? bus stops?

Sorry, I posted too soon.

In all, what would you like to see in your local community?
Even if it's more benches and flowers, or less fly tipping.

Advertisement: a mix of local Facebook groups and posters seem to get the word out. Direct contact with relevant parties, eg an email for schools to mention a club in the newsletter. Clear contact details!

the best things we’ve had here
-existing sports clubs funded to have extra time for relevant groups. We have a funded dance/ theatre group and a karate club. Not stand alone things that stop after, something that may be sustainable. Also had tennis funded, with a racket and ongoing court access included
-community events, such as a play bus visit
-a community garden, sessions possible for various ages
-kids kitchen, cooking sessions with healthy food for young children and their carer
-anything aimed at teens benefits everyone.

probably the single biggest thing is community space to use at a very lost cost or free. People tend to have skills to share, but nowhere to share them. We had an amazing place for a while and a lot happened

The only free space here is our library which is only open 3 half days a week. when we were children we used to have access to a big club house, free for anyone on fsm and low cost to others, there was another one with the same kind of price (but I think it was heavily discounted for free school meals children) and the library was open 5 days a week (closed Wednesdays and Saturdays.)
but this was late 90s early 2000s so we all had eachother to keep company.

I noticed that teen stuff has always been lacking.
there was a random club for a while but nobody really knew about it. We have a really bad teen problem round here and the only thing to do is joi the big groups

thanks for replying. the existing clubs, adding on time for it her groups sounds the most promising, for intake.
