Today, the UK is facing real political, social, and economic turbulence, like many places around the world. The climate of turbulence is affecting everyone and it’s kicking up major challenges for fostering a sustainable cross-sector community infrastructure for social cohesion in the UK. At Plan for Peace, we work closely with community changemakers across the UK to build locally-led community infrastructures for cohesion that are sustainable and nationally bridging, through our Changemakers in Turbulent Times programme.
This is the story of our programme alumni Paul Doherty - changemaker and community hero.
Watch our short film and take a glimpse into Paul's inspiring journey as he tackles inequality and poverty across Belfast. Paul began responding to the poverty he saw in his local community by running a small foodbank from his garage. Now, with support from a Plan for Peace seed grant, Paul supports families all across the city, including new arrivals of people who are seeking sanctuary, through his Foodstock and Community Solidarity Hub initiatives.
