Trilogy Win Inaugral ESG Award

It's a win! Trilogy won the Excellence in Community Engagement Partnerships award at the inaugural Property Week ESG Edge awards this week.

Trilogy's work at the Great Northern Warehouse was praised by the judges as a "True innovative approach to community engagement work through asset based community development"

The work at Great Northern was led by May Molteno and Emma James with Forever Manchester, guiding a dedicated team on the ground to develop and deliver an "Asset Based Community Development" approach. The process continues to be supported by an interactive asset map that includes physical assets, such as spaces and resources, as well as soft assets such as people’s skills and interests. The team then works within the community to connect people together based on shared interests, encouraging them to use facilities and businesses onsite, build new relationships and support each other to bring their ideas to life.

The Great Northern Warehouse has delivered a network of community spaces including a community library; gardening spaces; an indoor play and lounge for families with young children; a meeting room and kitchenette and a free-to-hire Village Hall space on site. Projects such as a men's mental health group and a support group for single parents are supported by up to £400 of seed funding, with more than £5000 awarded to local community groups using the village hall in the past year.
