The Hack of Kindness®: How it works
The Hack of Kindness® is typically a whole day session that brings people together to develop fresh ideas to solve problems they care about. This could be within communities, educational settings, businesses, public bodies or any type of organisation.
How could you use the Hack of Kindness®?
A problem or issue is identified for the Hack of Kindness® and objectives agreed. People who care about the issue or problem are invited to the event and given the relevant information to inspire and inform them ahead of the session.
A day of practical sessions focused on collaboration and generating fresh ideas. Working in diverse teams to identify the issues, do creative thinking and bring it together into a non-competitive pitch.
The team will write up the findings of the day, detail next steps for implementation and sign post for further engagement to make the ideas happen.
At Cwmpas we have a passionate, dedicated and experienced team that deliver the Hack of Kindness® and will support you through each stage of the process.
