The blog is designed to encapsulate any issues experienced (both good and bad) with social benefit projects and their statutory funded support systems. With all this talk lately about the need for projects that promote ’social mobility’, I wonder what is happening lately on the UK community buildings transfer agenda?

No Nonsense Mentoring is especially interested in finding out what the major stumbling blocks and quick wins are for individuals and groups that would like to secure an unused state run builiding in which to run their community activities. From a practical perspective, what support have you been offered to pull together a strong business case to a statutory body? Are you hitting your head against a brick wall? Are there any success stories or pockets of good practice out there to exchange with others?
