• Autumn ‘Fresh Start’ Help and Resources, In Focus for 2022 Edition: Out of the Cost-of-living Crisis
To introduce the 2022 Edition of Autumn ‘Fresh Start’ Help and Resources, we are going to briefly explain the following: Help and Resources for a Fresh Start as well as the focus for this year’s Fresh Start. Fresh Start and Out of the Cost-of-living Crisis are key words and contextual framework of CENFACS‘ Autumn poverty reduction work.
• • Autumn ‘Fresh Start’ Help and Resources
Autumn ‘Fresh Start’ Help strikes or kicks off our Autumn programme and Starting XI Campaign. It is our Autumn project striker. Autumn ‘Fresh Start’ Help and Resources are made of fresh start skills, tips, hints, tweaks, hacks, etc.; help and resources designed to overcome poverty and hardships. They are indeed activities to manage new beginnings and plans for the future.
Our advice-giving month of September continues as planned and will end next month. Advice-giving is part of our Help and Resources for Autumn Fresh Start. Although we put particular emphasis on advice-giving activity in our September engagement, other aspects of Autumn Fresh Start or striker are equally important and will continue beyond September.
Autumn ‘Fresh Start’ Help comes with Fresh Autumn Start (FAS) Resources. The highlights of the 2022 Edition of FAS, which are given below, take into account and focus on the cost-of-living crisis. The resources provided in FAS are non-financial help towards the costs of living. In this respect, the focus will be on what help that is available for users and what resources they can have in order for them to navigate their way out the cost-of-living crisis.
• • Out of the Cost-of-living Crisis as a Focus for this Year’s Autumn Fresh Start
Coming out of the cost-of-living crisis is a process that can last long ahead. It can last long because prices of goods and services are still rising. In the UK for example, the interest (that is; the price of borrowing money) expressed in terms of current bank rate by the Bank of England (1) is now 2.25%. And the Bank of England can still rise it depending on the economic conditions and the performance of the economy. In addition to the interest rate increases, inflation in the UK stood at 9.8% in August 2022, according to the ‘rateinflation.com’ (2). These increases, which can settle in the duration, affect the prices of goods and services in the economy. They also influence the prospect and duration of coming out of the cost-of-living crisis and of the cost-of-living poverty.
In the general and global context of continuing soaring prices, it is difficult to see how ordinary people, especially those living in poverty like some of CENFACS users, can survive without any help and access to resources to help them.
To begin the process of navigating way out this crisis, they need to freshly start. There is say that every day is a fresh start. In this Autumn of the cost-of-living crisis, fresh start is even more relevant than at any time. They need to freshly start since they are still dealing with the lingering socio-economic effects of the coronavirus. They need to freshly start to navigate their way out of the current cost-of-living crisis. So, in the process of coming out, Fresh Autumn Start could be what they badly need.
Further details about the above key words and contextual framework are given below under the Main Development section of this post.
To ask for ‘Fresh Start’ Help and or access Fresh Start Resources to Navigate your Way out of the Cost-of-living Crisis, please contact CENFACS.
• Green Spaces-focused Note for Week Beginning 26/09/2022: Interaction between Green and Blue Spaces in the Process of Poverty Reduction
Green Spaces can have influence on Blue Spaces and vice versa. This influence can happen in the process of reducing poverty. In the context of this note, we are looking how this influence between the two can be beneficial for the community we serve. Before that let us explore the influence between the two spaces.
• • The influence between green and blue spaces
Prior to dealing with this influence, it is better to understand both spaces.
Our understanding of green spaces comes from what Abigail Isabella McLean (3) argues about them, which is
“Green space refers to the many types of green land, ranging from parks to natural areas. Hence, the green spaces … will encompass naturally occurring green spaces, such as forests, but also space created within human-made means such as green roofs and tree-lined streets”.
As to blue space, its definition comes from what the ‘environmentagency.blog.go.uk’ (4) states about it, which is
“Blue spaces are outdoor environments – either natural or manmade – that permanently feature water and are accessible to people. In short – the collective term of rivers, lakes or the sea”.
So, blue spaces include blue ecosystems such as sea and coastline, rivers, lakes, canals, waterfalls, fountains, etc.
The above two definitions allow to understand the influence or interaction between green and blue spaces. Their influence can be looked at via or at the level of benefits they provide to humans; benefits which could be similar in those cases. What are those benefits?
• • Benefits provided by green and blue spaces to humans
A research study by Claire J. McCartan (5) found that
“Exposure to green and blue spaces has been linked to improvements in physical health including a reduction in cortisol levels, blood pressure, cholesterol and increases in self-reported health; there is also growing evidence of the benefits for mental health and wellbeing. How green and blue spaces transmit these benefits may be as a result of increased levels of physical activity and social interaction, greater exposure to sunlight, Vitamin D and healthy bacteria”.
Also, writing in the Guardian, Elle Hunt (6) argues that
“The benefits of blue space… are less publicised than green space. The science has been consistent for at least a decade: being by water is good for body and mind. Proximity to water – especially the sea – is associated with many positive measures of physical and mental wellbeing, from higher levels of vitamin D to better social relations. Many of the processes are exactly the same as with green space – with some added benefits”.
Furthermore, there are studies, like the one carried out by Abigail Chan (7) that conclude green and blue spaces can bring communities together while helping to reduce loneliness and stress.
The above research work and findings indicate that there are benefits to human health resulting from green and blue spaces. Some of the benefits are similar between the two spaces. This similarity in benefits provided can point out to some degree of influence or interaction between these spaces.
Although Elle Hunt (op. cit.) speaks about added benefits regarding the blue spaces, one can suggest that being in a green space can be seen as the same as staying in blue space. This could mean that green and blue spaces could interact on each other via the benefits they provide to humans.
Writing a note about the above-mentioned interaction is not the end of the theme of green spaces. The real aim here is how CENFACS can work with the communities in the UK and in Africa in order for them to live this interaction through the enjoyment of the benefits provided by both spaces.
• • Working with the communities to access the benefits provided by both spaces through their interaction
There are ways of working with communities to make the interaction between green and blue spaces work for them.
For example, if green and blue spaces can help reduce loneliness and stress, and loneliness and stress are seen as forms of poverty; then CENFACS can work with those members of its community who feel poor because of loneliness in order to alleviate this type of poverty.
Likewise, if the blue space can assist in reducing inequality, then CENFACS can work with those of its members who suffer from inequality, to tackle the matter.
Furthermore, if blue infrastructure (like rivers and inland lakes) can help address physical inactivity, then CENFACS can work with the members of its community who are physically inactive so that they look for and find opportunities to access blue infrastructure and tackle their physical inability.
In short, if one of our members needs blue or green prescription, we can work with them on this matter through advice, information, guidance, signposting and social prescribing.
The above is our last note about the theme of green spaces which we hope we have enjoyed. We also expect that through this theme, one will be able tackle green or blue poverty they are facing.
Saying that the above is our last note does not mean that we stopped working on green spaces. We are still working on them even though we will not produce any further note for the rest of the days of September 2022.
For those who would like more information about any of the notes developed throughout this month about green spaces as well as those who need a blue or green prescription, they are free to contact CENFACS.
For those who would like to support the theme of green spaces and our work, they should hesitate to contact CENFACS with your support.
• Data Skills to Run your Household
Data Skills to Run your Household is the second project of our 2022 Starting XI Campaign. Although this project was scheduled to start late in the Autumn, we are launching it now since we are in time of the cost-of-living crisis. And the sooner those in need of data skills understand the data making their household and life, the sooner they can prevent any further damaging effects on them from the cost-of-living crisis.
• • What is data skill?
When we introduced this project through the presentation of our Starting XI Campaign and Autumn Programme, we argued that Data Skills were/are the amalgamation of literacy and numeracy skills. Yet, Data Skills are deeper than what we said. How deeper are they?
Data Skills to Run your Household are the naturally acquired or developed talents and accomplishments that will allow our project beneficiaries to better run their households.
The project will help …
∝ families/households that lack skills in terms of handling data to gain sufficient skills and knowledge to use data making their lives
∝ these families attach value to data
∝ to capture household data and turn them into value
∝ to create trust in data systems they use to manage their lives
∝ to support both technical skills building and efforts to enhance a culture of data use within household systems
∝ to improve family/household limited data literacy skills
∝ to keep learning numeracy and statistical literacy skills at family/household level
∝ to empower and inform household data users
∝ to build the skills of household decision-makers in relation to handling information about their households.
• • Types of data skills
Investing in building the data skills for the good running of your household and decision-making process can help not only to tackle poverty linked to the lack of ability to handle data, but also other forms of poverty that a household may face. There are various data skills that a typical data unskilled household may need or require.
These types of data skills can include the following:
∝ Skills needed to collect, process and disseminate data
∝ Skills to extract the relevant information from data
∝ Skills for data engineering to manage and process data
∝ Foundational statistical skills to understand data relating to family life
∝ Data sharing skills within and outside household
Etc.
For those of our members interested in this project, they are welcome to contact CENFACS.

• Happiness Survey and Questionnaire
As part of our Summer Reporting and Sharing of experiences and stories, we are running a Happiness and Healthiness survey.
The survey, which is mostly about hearing your Summer experiences and stories, is also about improving on planning and delivery of summer projects and of enhancing the outcome of our advice on summer break and season.
For those who may be interested in this survey, there is a questionnaire to complete and return to CENFACS. This questionnaire can also be found in our Fresh Autumn Start resource. You can request the questionnaire as well.
To request and or complete the questionnaire, please contact CENFACS.
• Save Flora and Fauna
During our Build Forward Better Programme from the life-threatening and -destroying impacts of the coronavirus, our campaign on flora and fauna have been part of this process of building forward. Since we have curated and returned some of our projects, we have returned the original format of this campaign, which is Save Flora and Fauna.
• • What is Save Flora and Fauna?
Save Flora and Fauna, which is a twin advocacy, is one of our Starting XI Projects. Through this Starting XI Project, we are continuing to advocate for the protection of animal and plant species in Africa and elsewhere in developing world. Animals get killed, traded and extinct to such extent that some animal species are at the brink of disappearing. Some plants are also threatened and disappearing.
As said above, our advocacy has two parts, which are: save fauna and save flora. Let us consider each part.
• • Save Fauna
We continue to advocate for the protection of animals in Africa and elsewhere in developing world whereby animals get killed, traded and extinct to such extent that some species are at the brink of disappearing.
Our fauna advocacy aims at dealing with ways of tackling the threats to survival in the wild facing by the world’s big cats (such as lion, tiger, leopard, jaguar, cheetah, snow leopard, puma, clouded leopard, etc.), the world’s majestic animals and symbols of power and courage.
Animals such as jaguars, tigers, elephants, snakes, alligators, rhinoceroses, etc. are under threat. There are several reasons about it which include: hunting, illicit and illegal trade, over-harvesting, habitat loss, climate change, poaching, etc.
CENFACS’ Save Animals or Fauna advocacy is to advocate for the re-enhancement of protection of endangered, threatened and vulnerable animal species.
In this process, we are as well interested in efforts made to protect animals from diseases including the coronavirus. For example, people can still remember how tuberculosis killed elephants in South Africa, a few years ago.
• • Save Flora
We are as well extending our advocacy to other species in danger like trees, plans and flowers (flora). It is about advocating to save these species that are threatened with extinction.
For example, the New Phytologist Foundation (8) argues that 35% of the species are threatened with extinction. They include maize, potato, bean, squash, chilli pepper, vanilla, avocado, husk tomato and cotton crops.
If this threat is true and continues, then one needs to protect and build forward better these threatened species.
In the light of the above, what would be the contents of our Save Flora and Fauna for this Autumn.
• • This Autumn advocacy about ‘Save Flora and Fauna’
This year’s advocacy for flora and fauna will include two actions as follows.
1) Life-saving action against new forms of exploitation and trafficking of animal and plant species
This is an action to protect animal species in Africa from new forms of wildlife exploitation and trafficking, including kidnapping of animals from their natural sanctuary.
For example, in North-Kivu (the Eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Cong0), there are armed groups that set up their bases in the vicinity of parks like the park Virunga. These groups exploit natural resources (such as woods and animals) via poaching, illegal fishing, smuggling, kidnappings of animals, etc. Specimen and trophies from elephant ivory, charcoal and illicit fishing are traded by these groups to finance their supply of arms.
According to the Journal Le Monde (9), there has been kidnapping and holding of three baby chimpanzees from their sanctuary to ransom in the province of Katanga of the Democratic Republic of Congo, this September 2022. The kidnappers of these baby chimpanzees are still asking for money via social media.
As part of our action, we are appealing to those kidnappers to release those smuggled chimpanzees.
2) Life-saving action against the cost-of-living crisis on flora and fauna
The current cost-of-living crisis has put enormous pressure on humans, particularly the poorest ones. One could be afraid that fauna and flora could be neglected or simply forgotten or abandoned since mankind cannot cope with their own pressure of facing soaring costs of living.
This action is about making sure that, plant and animal species regain, restore, rebuild and thrive their lives while humans are trying to deal with the cost-of-living crisis. In other words, the action is about to ensure that the cost-of-living crisis does not lead to flora and fauna crises since we depend on them in order to come out of the cost-of-living crisis.
• • Save Fauna and Flora to “A la une” Campaign
Save Fauna and Flora is only an iceberg of the wide natural creature protection campaign run by CENFACS. CENFACS’ Save Fauna and Flora is run this week and will be soon after followed by our Autumn environmental umbrella campaign, “A la une” (Autumn Leaves of Action to the Upkeep of the Nature in Existence) project.
“A la une” will take Save Fauna and Flora advocacy to the other level of environmental communications and awareness raising. It will focus on Critically Endangered Bird Species. We shall focus on saving endangered bird species through our new initiative called ‘Mbulu’, as we said at the beginning of this September.
‘Mbulu’ (that is; Mobilising for Birds’ Useful Life for Us) is a new advocacy project planned by CENFACS to help protect critically endangered bird species in Africa. Birds like African Grey Parrots, Congo Peafowl, African Green Broadhill, etc. are endangered species.
The above is our highlights for Save Flora and Fauna. To advocate and raise your voice to save endangered plant and animal species, please contact CENFACS.

• Autumn ‘Fresh Start’ Help and Resources, In Focus for 2022 Edition: Out of the Cost-of-living Crisis
The following two items cover the presentation of Autumn ‘Fresh Start’ Help and Resources:
∝ Making Autumn Start and Season Easier
∝ Key summaries of FAS 2022 Edition.
Let us look at these items.
• • Making Autumn Start and Season Easier
In order to make Autumn Start and Season Easier it is better to understand Fresh Autumn Start and its context.
• • • What is Fresh Autumn Start (FAS)
FAS is a continuation of our Summer Support projects into the Autumn season. It is a building block or additional back up of useful survival tips and hints to embrace Autumn as smoothly and trouble-freely as possible.
It includes real life situations that users may face when and as they return from their Summer break or season on one hand, and possible leads to proffer solutions to their arising Autumn needs on the other hand.
This FAS resource is not exhaustive or an end itself. It needs other resources as complement. It is a good basic insight into a Fresh Start as it provides helpful advisory tools for a Fresh Start and confidence building from the beginning to the end of Autumn season. It could also be used as a reference for users to engineer their own idea of Fresh Start and the sustained management of autumn needs.
At the end of this resource, there are some websites addresses/directories for help and support. These sources of help and support are not exhaustive. We have mainly considered third sector organisations and service providers as well as social enterprises.
For further or extended list of service providers for Autumn needs, people can contact their local authorities and service directories (both online and in print).
• • • Fresh Autumn Start in the context of Rising Costs of Living
This Autumn, we are approaching Fresh Start Help from the perspective and context of Rising Costs of Living. It is the context in which prices of goods and services are continuing to rise while incomes are not in position to catch up with rising costs. It is the context of cost-of-living crisis. In this typical context, the most sufferers are those living in poverty as they cannot afford rising prices and bills.
A context like the one we have depicted needs a response so that our users can meet their needs and navigate their way out of the cost-of-living crisis. Our users need help and support. We can work with them so as they can get the needy help in order to meet basic life-sustaining needs and requests.
Briefly speaking, Fresh Start Help is the first line of support in the process of coming out of the cost-of-living crisis. The second line of support is Fresh Start Resources.
• • Key Summaries of FAS 2022 Edition
The key summaries of FAS 2022 Edition can be found under the contents below.
• • • Contents for FAS 2022 Edition
The contents for 2022 Edition of FAS include:
∝ Autumn scenarios and actions to take
∝ Examples of Summer Break Expenses Track Record and Autumn Budget
∝ People needs and Autumn leads
∝ Integration of threats and risks
∝ What you can get from CENFACS
∝ Autumn online and digital resources.
Let us briefly explain each of these contents.
• • • Possible Autumn Scenarios and Possible Actions
When returning from Summer break and/or season, people can find themselves in a variety of situations depending on their own individual circumstances and life experiences. This variety of situations may require or be expected to be matched with a diversity of responses in order to meet people’s Autumn needs.
These variable circumstances and diverse responses or a course of actions can take the different shapes as well as can be framed in order to take into account the continuing adverse impacts of climate change. One of these shapes could be to contextualise and customise back-to-relief, fresh start and build-forward-better support. This is what CENFACS tries to do via the advice service.
• • • Examples of Summer Break Expenses Track Record and Autumn Budget
Tracking down and reassessing summer break/season expenses are a positive step to put one through an optimistic start of the Autumn season. As part of this positive step, FAS is packed with an example of Summer Break Expenses Track Record.
Budgeting Autumn items and needs is also good for a Fresh Start and for overall control over the start and rest of autumn season expenses. Since our focus is on ways of coming out of the cost-of-living crisis, one can write a budget that deals with soaring costs of living.
To write a comprehensive budget, one needs to include in their budget possible projections or forecasting or even scenarios regarding key indicators or adjustment factors like interest rate, inflation, indexes of goods and services, etc. Such a budget will help in costing the activities planned in the process of navigating one’s way out of the cost-of-living crisis.
To support this financial control, FAS contains two examples of budgets: Autumn budget adjusted for the cost-of-living crisis and fresh start budget.
• • • People’s Needs and Autumn Leads
Variable circumstances can obviously result in multiple needs. One of these circumstances is the current cost-of-living crisis. To meet those needs, we may have to gather resources, tools and institutions to guide us. The 2022 Edition of FAS provides a table that gives an idea of the likely leads to satisfy people’s needs or just to guide them.
• • • Integrating Threats and Risks from the Adverse Impacts of Various Factors into FAS
The FAS 2022 edition integrates the damaging impacts of economic factors or variables such as interest rate change, inflation, the cost-of-living index, policy changes, etc.
It also considers the probable evolution of these factors or variables in the medium term since there are speculations that the worsening of these variables like the cost-of-living crisis can lead to humanitarian crisis. Likewise, the probable adverse impacts of climate change are nevertheless taking into account and unavoidable.
This integration is at the levels of possible Autumn scenarios, Autumn budget and arising needs. It is the integration of both life-sustaining needs and life-threatening impacts of the coronavirus and climate change.
• • • What You Can Get from CENFACS in Autumn under Autumn Help to Navigate your Way out of the Cost-of-living Crisis
The set of helps provided in the FAS 2022 is part of CENFACS’ UK arm of services and additional services we set up to overcome the negative side effects of crises and risks (like the coronavirus, the cost-of-living crisis). In this respect, FAS 2022 include ‘Fresh Start‘ activities or services that can be aligned with Post-pandemic Rebuilding Activities we explained in our post of 18 May 2022. What are these activities?
There are two activities we would like to mention, which are:
a) activities to manage new beginnings
b) activities to manage plans for the future.
• • • • Fresh Start Activities as Those to Manage New Beginnings
The activities relating to the management of new beginnings will help to work with the community to achieve the following:
✔ Set up new goals with them
✔ Identify new opportunities and threats at the current time of the cost-of-living crisis.
We shall work with them through advice, tips and hints in order for them to manage the new beginnings.
• • • • Fresh Start Activities as Those to Manage Plans for the Future
Fresh Start activities could be those of managing the future as well. By using futuring and visioning methods and techniques, it is possible to develop scenarios, horizon scanning and trend monitoring/analysis to help them not only navigate their way out of the cost-of-living crisis; but to minimise the likely harmful impacts of future risks and crises as well.
Besides the above-mentioned provision, FAS 2022 further takes into account specific needs of people that may require specialist organisations and or institutions to deal with them. In which case CENFACS can signpost or refer the applicants to those third parties.
• • • Autumn online and digital resources
As explained earlier, FAS 2022 Edition contains a list of organisations and services that can help users in different areas covering basic needs. Most the provided resources, which are from the charity and voluntary sector, are online and digital. The list gives their contact details including the kinds of support or service they provide.
We hope that the basic tips and hints making the contents of FAS 2022 Edition will help you in some aspects of your Autumn needs, and you will find the relief you are looking for.
We would like to take this opportunity of the beginning of the new season to wish you a Happy and Healthy Autumn, as well as good luck in your efforts to Navigate your Way Out of the Cost-of-living Crisis!
