- 5. ‘New Old’ → Curious Minds “I know I’m old, but I don’t consider myself old” “I can’t sit still, gotta keep moving” “Having retired, having the belief that you can actually bring your skills to volunteer work, it makes you feel good. Good about it. You know I am a school governor but that’s not a skill really. That’s for the community”
- 6. ‘New Young’→ Young Experience Seekers “Being able to say you’ve done voluntary work with a recognised charity when you’ve come out of university is always a good thing” “That’s why the broom...the riot clean ups, there was no interview process for that. It was on Twitter people turned up, and they started cleaning that day. If anything came out of that, people appreciated the speed and being part of something immediate”
- 7. Families → Explorer Families “You’re killing two birds aren’t you? It’s a really good day out, quality time with the kids, but also you feel like you’re doing something as well” “That’s certainly the reason I haven’t looked into National Trust volunteering. I assumed I wouldn’t be able to because I have a 4 year old, 6 year old and 8 year old - so how could I possibly? So if there was something we could do that would certainly interest me”
- 9. Our philosophy Living & Giving isn’t simply about shops, it's a philosophy. It's a collaboration of people’s ideas, beliefs and values. It's about people giving time, energy, passion and most importantly - doing what they can. It is based on the idea of a cooperative, with community involvement at the heart of each shop. Living & Giving shouldn't just inspire the community, it should bring the community to life.
