When the telephone company told residents they couldn’t get broadband, the local community decided not to wait for others and solve the problem themselves. Great example of local community solutions. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-… #takeaction #localcommunitysolutions #community

Another great example of local people & local business leaders helping the homeless in their local community. It's a first step away from homelessness and shows what we as individuals can do. Hat tip to @MimiHarker chroniclelive.co.uk/news/uk-n… #homelessness @HBHomeless #poverty

@aliMMA @Pret That's the thing. I don't think there is a need for some central master plan. Often, all we need to do look around us in our community and we'll see the problems. Then we need to ask ourselves, how could I help? Every community is different.

I don't think there is any problem with cashless tech per se (well maybe chips in our foreheads :)) What I want to ensure is that we don't increase the problem of poverty without realising.

Cashless societies sound like progress until you realise many of those who don’t use digital banking are from poorer communities. We need to think about how the “dash from cash” could make their situation worse. thersa.org/discover/publi… #cashless #banking #fintech @theRSAorg
