"Like many in Hackney, we are very concerned about the impact on the borough's most vulnerable residents of the recent cuts announced by the Government. The Government's own changes to Housing Benefit, Job Seekers Allowance, and other benefits are all likely to affect most those in need." Mary Cannon, CEN Chair

Community organisers take up position
The first 47 people trained as Community Organisers have been recruited from 11 communities. The plan is for the Organisers to be trained from now until 2015 and they will be based in local groups, bringing people together around various local issues. It is hoped that the Organisers will be involved in assisting communities to take advantage of the Community First Fund. Locality has launched a website where you can find our nearest community organiser and your nearest host.
