Hi, my name is Karen and I have a planner addiction πŸ™ˆπŸ€£

As the work level increases i feel the need to buy more planners and sticky labels and highlighters and well just stationary in general πŸ˜±πŸ“–

Running so many different projects takes some organisation, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it πŸ˜‰

Follow me for more planner to tips but please don't share yours as my fellow office sharers may despair if I buy anymore Yorkshire Coast Connections KO Socials Conexus Tuition Scarborough, Whitby and Filey

Wow what a busy day!!! My feet hardly touched the ground πŸ™Œ

First, a quick hour at the YNY Business Network meeting at Flavours Bistro. My first visit here and I was so impressed! Said hello to a few familiar faces KO Socials Amanda Craven Yorkshire Coast Accounting and Business Advisors Ltd It’seeze Websites Scarborough Lilly’s Treasures drank a quick coffee, introduced myself without too many ermmmms then had to dash onto the next meeting πŸ™ˆ

A lovely meet up with Richard from the StriveLive team along with Anja from Notch Media. Talking all things CIC's with a nice cuppa from Koda Coffee β˜•οΈ

Then jump into the car and drive to Harrogate for our Inclusivity Training with the North Yorkshire Together team. Thankful for the weighted bear and fidgets I took with me, I certainly needed them by this point 🀣 Lovely to see some familiar faces and couldn't have done it without Gav the legend from Sen-Active Community Glow CIC ✨️

Rush off with an egg sandwich in hand back to Yorkshire Coast Connections to meet up with Tamsyn from the Circle Study by the Sea Research team πŸ˜€

Phew.......I'm ready for a rest tonight but what a fabulous day 😴

Busy week ahead, lots of new project planning and training delivery taking place πŸ™Œ

We are very excited to have been asked by the North Yorkshire Together team to deliver some training to their FEAST providers on inclusivity πŸ₯°

We'll be travelling to Harrogate along with the awesome Sen-Active Community Glow CIC to talk all things SEND, inclusivity and how to ensure we make it possible for every child to have access to safe, inclusive play this Summer πŸ’―

Yesterday I had a problem. A big one. The kind that lands in your lap and makes you stare at the ceiling wondering how you’re going to navigate it πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Here’s the thing. Every single CIC founder has days like that. Every one of us. The problems don’t stop just because your purpose is good or your heart is in the right place. Running a CIC is one of the most rewarding things you can do and one of the most relentless at times.

But yesterday I was lucky. I was in a space where I could talk it through. Where the people around me didn’t just listen, they helped me think. They brought perspective I didn’t have. They reminded me that the problem wasn’t as immovable as it felt at 9am.

By the time I left that room, I had a way forward.

That’s not luck really, is it? That’s having the right people around you πŸ™ŒπŸ’―

That’s exactly what CIC Start Collabs is. Not a networking group. Not a talking shop. Your own set of cheerleaders, problem solvers, and straight talkers who understand this world because they’re living it too.

We’re holding an open event very soon where you can come and see it for yourself. The working environment. The people. What real collaboration actually looks like in practice. No PowerPoints. No business jargon. Just real. We already have some great CICs signed up, we know there's some great collaborative work ahead πŸ‘

Details coming very soon πŸ‘‡

In the meantime, if you’re navigating something tough right now, you don’t have to do it alone. That’s the whole point.

Shared Purpose. Shared Impact 🌊

The rain held off!!!! β›ˆοΈ

We're so grateful for those that popped along to our chalet yesterday to take part in our first Age Without Limits day event. The weather was kind and we even got to sit in sunshine and chat over a cuppa πŸ™Œ

Our first lot of stories were collected with words recorded and zines made about memories, aging disgracefully 🀣 and what's important to us here in Scarborough in 2026 πŸ“–

Keep an eye out for more events coming soon!!! πŸ‘€ We are excited to report that we've secured some funding to continue to collect community stories for a very special Scarborough 400 event happening later in the year, we can't wait to tell you more πŸ’•πŸ‘

Happy 1st Birthday, ConnectEd! πŸŽ‰

One year of ConnectEd Scarborough CIC πŸŽ‚

Today our directors are round the table, cake in hand (well maybe a biscuit or 2!) looking back at everything year one held and forward at everything year two will πŸ™Œ

So what's next?

More collaborations with the people and organisations who get what we're building.

More support for those who need us most, that's always been the heart of it.

We're stepping further into research and study, learning new things and not being afraid to ask tough questions.

We'll keep being a voice for our community on the Yorkshire Coast, opening up opportunities for people who too often get overlooked.

Oh and there's a book launch on the horizon. Maybe even two πŸ‘€ ( Lindsey Williams we're looking at you!)

Year one was about finding our feet. Year two is about going further.

Here's to all of it. Thank you for being part of the journey πŸŒŠπŸ’―πŸ’•
