With 45days left on the Hastings Pier Community Shares scheme the average investment is just £210

These days talking about money seems to be a greater taboo than talking about sex etc.
Just as the question "What did you do during the war?" is a poignant question, so too is "How much did you pledge to the pier?". Are we holding ourselves and each other to account? How much of our wealth is a sensible amount to put into the pier; a tithe (one tenth)?

Some own no home (myself included) and so a significant contribution to the pier is a step away from home ownership, yet a step towards community. Is this foolishness or the act praised in the Bible - the small amount the widow gave was larger than any amount given by the rich.
Will this be "a people's pier" or largely a Hastings and St Leonards' Home Owners' pier? What percentage of the people here own their homes, let alone have a share in the pier? Respond or leave these questions as you will.

If you give money as a result of following this link, please let me know so that I can count it towards the £10,000-£20,000* target I have set for raising funds

Why not increase your commitment to your community & its pier now?

To practice a less well developed version of communicating via the four steps of making an OBSERVATION, expressing a FEELING, linking the feeling to a causal NEED & making a REQUEST:
1) My observation is that I've had less than 3 hours sleep
2) I'm feeling raw
3) The needs/values I'm in touch with are peace, harmony, acceptance of difference?, (joy in diversity?), learning/wisdom, ease, friendship, challenge & break-through beyond all the previous failures.
4) My request is that you watch at least part one of Maria Arpa's video about the fairness button that is easily triggered within each of us. Could you, within a week, let me know if you'd like some interaction with Maria Arpa by phoning me on 0780 70 66 202 and then we can clarify how we might get more of what we want from Maria and, like with everyone else, less of what we don't want or don't believe serves our (higher) interests well.
*********
My parting advice to stay connected with someone is to avoid the "3 Ds of disconnection" :
1) Deserve-based language
2) Demand
3) Denial of Responsibility

There's a 4th D but I've forgotten it. Time for some humility around what I don't know in terms of effective strategies to bring people into NVC (nonviolent communication), or at least into mutual comprehension.

May everyone be loved well,
Paul

Taking on Hastings Pier Fundraising Responsibility




Asked today by a new contact at my office at Southwater Area Community Centre: "What do you do?", I simply said:
"My company, Mediation Support Ltd works on conflicts, in particular when someone experiencing a grievance comes to me for support.
I also fundraise for the pier" Simples.

I make films too to gear myself up to go fundraising, with a commitment to raise £10-£20,000 by close of play for the share scheme (January?):

For the Pier Community Shares scheme I will raise at least £10,000 & if Hastings Pier Charity negotiate about the unpaid Mediation Support Ltd invoice, possibly double that



















Dear Ray,

My intuition is to share this with you, Maria Arpa and Paul Baker (also from the September 2011 Dialogue Road Map training). Seeing as we've only exchanged pleasantries once in 18 months (paths not crossing) & what with the unpaid Mediation Support Ltd invoice for £150 (which I'm willing to write off but still feel undervalued in relation to), I don't know what terms we are on.

Can we meet for coffee before I set a target of raising £20,000 for the Community Share Scheme in the next month by visiting shop-keepers as I describe in this film?:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgEr3MR9i9w

Meeting for a coffee would be great; Mondays to Wednesdays are usually the exceptions to my availability but try me.

Justice Fiasco and the ongoing responsibility of those who were on the pier that night


What would be the best title for a documentary made from the films on the blog since the October 2010 pier fire? "Hastings Pier Fire Justice Fiasco"?  

Now that the two arrestees have come of age (ie both over 21), please come forward by adding to YouTube (anonymously if you want) your film "What I did that led to Hastings Pier Fire". (Google this phrase to see community contributions so far to taking responsibility for what is surely Hastings & St Leonards' shame?).

I don't know what the effect has been of the Facebook group "Hastings Pier Justice", or on this Sussex Community blog or Hastings Justice blog (http://hastingsjustice.blogspot.co.uk) or Ethical Outings in Hastings blog (http://ethicaloutings.blogspot.co.uk); created to serve the cause of community development about when it is best to "out" people or how best to encourage people to out themselves.

For the persistent young offender who has been tarred with the brush of being the main individual culpable in the mysterious case of Hastings Pier Fire, my question is "What is it like for you to be so accused?".

I look forward to resolution of these matters, and a new community-wide engagement in justice in Hastings & St Leonards by the time those arrested for the Hastings Pier Fire have reached 25 i.e. by 2016. May they have the courage to "out" themselves and speak about this matter of local heritage and may the community create a legacy of a culture in which justice is seen to be done by all, and justice is done for all,
