StrongerTogetherForum Launches to Enhance Social Impact in Basingstoke
The #StrongerTogetherForum (#STF) has been launched in Basingstoke with the aim of boosting social impact and fostering collaboration among local businesses, charities, and community organizations. The initiative was introduced by Mark Jones, a former editor of the Gazette, at an event held at Arena Offices Grosvenor House in Basing View. The forum is designed to operate on core values of collaboration, kindness, hope, and impact, and seeks to deliver value by enhancing social impact and creating income-generating opportunities. The launch event was attended by over 70 people and featured a conversation between Mark Jones and Marie Greenhalgh, the relationships director at Inclusion Education. The forum's founding partners include Inclusion Education and Basingstoke Business for Good, a values-focused verification program. The #STF aims to connect organizations committed to positive change and provide platforms such as a weekly podcast and monthly conversations to engage its members.
