Staff time for community projects: a council program

The problem. Good intentions to volunteer rarely turn into a plan people can join. Who it helps. A council or library team hosting it, helping people who run or work in small offices, workspaces and event teams. What you start with. A few hours of staff time and a clear community brief. What is delivered. Staff give a few hours to one small project, matched to their skills. A community officer hosts it with local partners and follows progress. How progress is known. Hours given and tasks finished are recorded. A short summary is shared with the council, with names and personal details left out. Main purpose. The main purpose is access to a useful product or service, or less waste going to landfill, for the community. Honest limits. Taking part is voluntary. Ownership of your idea stays with you, and no job, funding or contract is promised. Track record. This is a new idea built on work Deals Colony has already documented. It has not been run yet.
