Connector CIC Company
The company has designed "Age of Inspiration" events as an amazing and innovative way of engaging with lonely and isolated people. Following on the success of the pilot initiative, it has devised a portfolio of inspirational wellbeing and resilience events aimed at tackling social isolation and now wants to roll-out these events across Lancashire. It uses a variety of methods, including the psychological educational components that teaches the 5 Ways to Wellbeing, using humour, fun and laughter as a mechanism to stay well, connecting individuals to the things that keep them resilient, reduce their isolation and connects them with new and old friends. The company involves a whole host of support agencies to attend these events and have developed a good understanding through networking links with agencies and communities. These events are about connecting people and encouraging them to get involved. Impact is measured through asking individuals to make a promise against the 5 Ways to Wellbeing and they receive a follow-up call in order to gather intelligence which can then be used to produce an impact report.
