We are a peer-led network of individuals who want to share power to unleash social change.

The first Losing Control events had profound impacts on many of our partners and on our own organisation so we’re excited to make a long-term commitment

Losing Control will help our partners to expand their network, learn from each other, build relationships and collaborate to devolve power to local communities

Losing Control will support the grassroots groups of lived experience that we are working with to amplify voice whilst at the same time help our internal shift to a new way of working

We are pleased to be a part of Losing Control, joining other people passionate about collaborating and challenging the conventions of how we get things done.

I am coming to Losing Control because I am keen to learn new ways of devolving power, as well as empowering citizens to take on some of our greatest societal challenges. I look forward to sharing my skills in developing movements, as well as learning from other likeminded and committed individuals

I am a parent, resident and community volunteer who feels quite powerless most of the time, especially when faced with people in power who fear change, or residents who feel their only power is in keeping things the way they are, even if they situation is less than ideal. I would love to learn and improve my own communication when it comes to approaching communities and institutions with a suggestion of improving something collaboratively

I have been working as a volunteer to build resident-powered organisations for the last eight years. I’d like to share experiences & learn from others
