Welcome to Social Activator

The purpose of this blog is to log thoughts on social activism, design, marketing and community building as well as to review of fantastic projects within the community which strive to create spaces for people to share knowledge, skills, abilities and fun.
My vision is for everyone to come to the recognition that they are social activator. They are change agents. They can create opportunities for other to find their own space in this world to create a better present for themselves but also for others. We are all activators.
I have plenty of ideas on how this blog will be run. I will probably start where I am now in the UK, Leicester before expanding my reach.
I will write down all those ideas and then structure my thoughts before moving to my next action.
I keep you posted!

She jokes that she would like to know a bit more the chubby shy one to see if she can rub on her. What is your inconscious mind trying to tell you?

This person had to be reliable, trustworthy and hard working.  I did not find the person through the various meetings and events which I organised or participated in. The individuals I have met were not there to collaborate in the way I wanted. They were looking to gain other social benefits. Eventually, one person revealed herself to be the right partner whilst I was volunteering to support her own scheme: Footpaths, a carbon footprint reduction community-based programme . I run some sessions with her as a co-facilitator. Through our preparation meetings, I shared my vision for Positive Money in Leicester and our two worlds merged. Since then, we are partners. Others got inspired and joined us to develop a taster and full day workshop on Money. After the taster...

Hard Choices - Ruth Chang

Could this talk possibly literally change your life? Have you asked yourself questions such as: Which career should I pursue? Should I break up — or get married?! Where should I live? Did you have to make big decisions? Have they been agonizingly difficult take? If yes, you were probably thinking about them in the wrong way according to philosopher Ruth Chang. Her framework will most probably help you to shape who you truly are. To watch the video > click here
