The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.

A CBI aims to address four problems in the short term which both affect individual health and wellbeing and our collective capacity to act:

1. Unemployment
2. Poverty, particularly inter-generational poverty, and rising costs of living
3. A non-fit for purpose welfare system
4. The lack of work that could be happening in our communities to improve life for everyone, including promoting conversations about what we value.

Some examples of community projects that could be achieved via a CBI:

• Food Security projects – ensuring everyone has access to healthy, food, grown in environmentally friendly ways, and using the power of food for greater social connection and inclusion
• Helping kids get a better start in life, help them be lifelong learners, help families raise healthy kids
• Environmental regeneration
• Easing the housing crisis – connecting up and actively supporting house sharing such as between retiree’s and students, promoting tiny houses
