Partnering With A Doddle
I’m proud to share that I’ve partnered with A Doddle, a charity making it easier for people to connect with local help, support, and community opportunities. Their mission is simple but powerful: to build a UK-wide network of “community maps” that show where help is available, what charities and groups are doing, and how people can get involved. It’s all about making support accessible, visible, and easier to find because sometimes the hardest step is knowing where to turn. In this video, I talk about the amazing work A Doddle does, why their mission matters, and how you can be part of it too. 👉 Find out more about A Doddle and explore their maps here: https://adoddle.org/ @aDoddle
