Programme Officer

Advice, Charity, Community, Social Welfare Together for Change (TfC) is funded by National Lottery Community Fund, Wales. We are a small organisation that originated from community activism in West Wales. Our work centres on coproduced programmes of wellbeing (living well) in communities of place; bringing together the elements of policy, research and practice; locally, regionally and nationally, to benefit the lives of people. After three years of intense activity, we are at a cross-roads and reflecting on our future, asking the question: how can we build on our learning and successes so far, flourish, and maximise our impact for the benefit of communities? This is a big question that includes a consideration of the legal entity that we should become. Currently TfC is hosted by the charity Solva Care. So, a time of impending change and growth but some things are definitely fixed for TfC: Our belief and approach to partnership work - We have to work together as equal partners if we are to have a stronger voice and maximise our impact in making a difference. An important part of that is ensuring a people centred approach that brings the voice, and knowledge of the circumstances, of communities of place to jointly plan programmes of community focused action. Our commitment to addressing the profound inequalities in our society - We will always strive to contribute to building a better and more equal life for all so that everyone, young and older people alike have a chance of a decent life and hope for the future. This demands a radical and bold approach that often takes us out of our comfort zone. Our belief that we need to make better use of evidence - Generating, using, and sharing evidence of the expressed needs of communities and the innovations that are embedded in local practice. We must strive to do this in ‘real time’ to increase the relevance and utility of data to influence policy and practice.
