Stronger Leaders, Stronger Communities!

Today, we had a really meaningful and insightful conversation at the Leaders Forum, bringing together organisation leaders from across Portsmouth with representatives from The National Lottery and Blagrave Trust.

The discussion focused on community development funding and most importantly, how we can better support the incredible leaders who work tirelessly to serve, strengthen and empower their communities.

We were delighted to welcome Steve Goosh from The National Lottery and Kosh Shengamo from Blagrave Trust, who gave up their Saturday to listen to our community leaders, understand the challenges facing our communities and explore opportunities to strengthen support for grassroots community development.

It was a valuable opportunity to share experiences, discuss the realities faced by community organisations and consider how funding can be made more accessible, effective and responsive to the needs of local communities.

At the heart of the conversation was a shared understanding that strong communities start with strong leaders and that investing in, listening to and supporting those leaders is essential to creating lasting, positive change.

A heartfelt thank you to Steve and Kosh for taking the time to join us, listen to our leaders and engage in such an open, honest and constructive conversation. Your time and willingness to listen are greatly appreciated.

Stronger Leaders. Stronger Communities.

EXCITING NEWS! URBOND IS NOW AN ACCREDITED NCC Education PARTNER!

We’re proud to share that URBOND is an accredited NCC Education partner, enabling us to deliver certified courses that can help people develop new skills, build confidence, and unlock new opportunities. 🙌

At a time when many young people and adults are finding themselves out of education, struggling to access training, or facing barriers to employment, we believe it’s more important than ever to create opportunities that empower our community.

This is about more than gaining a qualification. It’s about opening doors.

Through certified training, we want to help members of our community:
- Develop valuable, transferable skills.
- Gain recognised qualifications.
- Improve their confidence and employability.
- Explore new career pathways.
- Take positive steps towards education, training and employment.

At URBOND, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to learn, grow and reach their potential, regardless of their background or circumstances.

By bringing these opportunities closer to our community, we hope to break down barriers, inspire ambition, and support people in building brighter futures.

Your background should never define your future. With the right support, skills and opportunities, you can take the next step towards achieving your goals.

This is just the beginning, and we’re excited about what we can achieve together!

Let’s invest in our people, strengthen our communities and create pathways to a brighter future together. 🤝

Yesterday, we had the honour of attending the Law Sunday Service at Wi******er Cathedral, following an invitation from Mr William Maltby, the High Sheriff of Hampshire.

The service was attended by His Majesty’s judges and magistrates, alongside representatives of civic and legal organisations from across Hampshire.

The service also provided a wonderful opportunity to connect with some incredible people, including the Lord Mayor of Southampton, Pat Evemy.

It was equally lovely to catch up with Jacqui Scott, CEO of HIWCF and Donna Jones, Police and Crime Commissioner.

We look forward to building on these connections and exploring opportunities for meaningful collaboration.

We’re excited to announce that URBOND, C3 Collaborating for Health and African Families in the UK (AFiUK) CIC have come together to form a new partnership consortium.

WHO WE ARE
Three organisations bringing different experiences, expertise and community connections together:

URBOND – Portsmouth based organisation supporting young people, families and communities through youth development, wellbeing, education and community integration.

C3 Collaborating for Health – bringing expertise in health, prevention, wellbeing and community collaboration, with experience working with over 100 organisations across eight countries.

AFiUK – Colchester and Tendring based organisation building trusted relationships with African diaspora and migrant communities through our King’s Award-winning Community Ambassador Model, with expertise spanning health, wellbeing, parenting, youth support and cultural awareness.

Together, we’re combining our strengths to share knowledge, develop community leaders, strengthen community engagement and create opportunities that respond to the needs of the communities we work alongside.

At the heart of this consortium is the power of multiplication — combining our strengths, networks and resources to achieve more together than we could alone.

By working together, we can bring different perspectives, expertise and networks together to create meaningful and lasting impact.
