MARK FOSTER | MISSION & PURPOSE

👥️Meet Mark Foster

Project Lead at Ecosystem Coldharbour.

Mark works across the partnership, helping connect community organisations, local people and wider services around a shared goal: reducing violence and supporting longer-term change for young people and the wider community.

🎯 As we begin sharing Partnership in Practice here on Instagram, our first theme is

Mission & Purpose.

We asked our partners:

••• What is the mission of Ecosystem Coldharbour?

••• And what makes our approach different from more traditional services and interventions?

Mark is the first voice in this conversation.

In his response, he speaks about the importance of a whole-community approach, listening to people, building local capacity and recognising that lasting change has to come from within the community itself.

💬 “True change can only come from communities.”

Over the coming posts, we’ll hear how other Ecosystem Coldharbour partners answer the same question - each bringing their own experience and perspective.

🔹 Partnership in action

This series is about more than conversations.

Just to say : Hey ☀️ It's a hot one out there.

With temperatures staying high across the UK, this is a gentle reminder to take care of yourself and those around you.

💧 Drink water regularly
🌳 Find shade when you can
🧢 Wear light clothing and sun protection
❤️ Check in on neighbours, friends, and anyone who may need a little extra support

Small actions can make a big difference during hot weather.

Stay safe, stay hydrated, and let's look out for one another.

From London to Melbourne ✈️🌍
We were honoured to have Andrea Davidson visit us to learn from London's Violence Reduction Unit as she begins setting up a VRU in Victoria, Australia.

She saw firsthand how Ecosystem Coldharbour and MyEnds partnerships bring communities, services and lived experience together to support young people with wraparound care.
“This is what community-led change looks like.”

We’re proud our work in Brixton is inspiring global action 💛 Who knows, Lambeth's young leaders could be leading a return visit soon!
