Reposted by Scottish ABCD CircleBrigid Russell @brigidrussell51.bsky.social · 14/03/2025This week yet again, I've been reminded of the power in really listening, in being listened to, and in feeling heard. Power with and alongside. Not over-complicated or tidied up. Listening needs space - to breathe and be, just as it is, and as long as it takes. 0111

Across the community, those that can, will: *Make the invisible visible. *Bring the out of touch into reach. *Heed the unheard. *Feel through the numbness. *Smell the hidden aromas. #ConnectedCommunity 142

A lively community cafe, & a coffee morning being established too, as well as lots of clubs. Folks sharing news, deep in conversation, taking breakfast back for neighbours unable to get out. ❤️ @scottishabcd.bsky.social 041
Scottish ABCD Circle @scottishabcd.bsky.social · 08/03/2025HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY! To the weavers, the listeners, the creaters, the peace makers, the nurturers, the doers, & the movers & shakers. 💪💥💕 022
Reposted by Scottish ABCD CircleTrisha Elliott @trishaelliott.bsky.social · 15/02/2025Yes, agreed. I’ve just finished @cormacrussell.bsky.social’s book on The Connected Community and I suspect he would agree. All communities have assets but we’re not good at exploring them, preferring to highlight the deficits. #AssetBasedCommunityDevelopment #ABCD 072
Scottish ABCD Circle @scottishabcd.bsky.social · 18/02/2025We'd love to connect (& reconnect!) with more people across Scotland who are interested & passionate about Asset Based Community Development to celebrate success & stories across the country. Would really appreciate a wee repost as we get settled over here on Bluesky 😁 #ScottishABCD 033

Reposted by Scottish ABCD CircleTrisha Elliott @trishaelliott.bsky.social · 11/02/2025I’ve just finished reading “The Connected Community”, by @cormacrussell.bsky.social and John McKnight after learning a while ago about Asset Based Community Development. Lots of interesting suggestions and ideas in it! Anyone else read it? 3179
Scottish ABCD Circle @scottishabcd.bsky.social · 07/02/2025This is an interesting little fund to support community led ideas around "demystifying death". Open until 21st March 000
