WHAT ARE PROSPERITY POTLUCKS™?

More than a meal. More than a meeting.

Intentionally small, lightly guided gatherings that bring businesses, charities, CICs, grassroots organisations, and individuals together around the same table.

Come as you are

No pitch. No preparation. No pressure to perform. Bring yourself, your experience, and whatever is alive for you right now. That is enough.

Share what is real

Thoughtful prompts open up genuine conversation. People share as much or as little as feels right - space is held for listening just as much as speaking.

Grow together

Connections, collaborations, and clarity often emerge from a single conversation. Many relationships - and projects - continue long after the meal.

AT THE TABLE

What to expect when you arrive


Each gathering follows a simple, welcoming format. You will never be put on the spot or expected to present. Just come and be part of it.

A warm welcome and a shared meal
Thoughtful conversation prompts to open up the room
Space to listen, reflect, or share at your own pace
A relaxed, inclusive atmosphere - all ages and sectors welcome
Different perspectives from across your community
Connections that often continue beyond the table

VOICES FROM THE TABLE

In their own words

Curious to find out more initially. Second time was to connect with a fabulous group of individuals from local businesses and organisations with whom we hope to collaborate on future projects. Extremely valuable - it was very positive with lots of enthusiasm.

GROWING THE TABLES


The movement is growing.

Prosperity Potlucks™ are now entering their next stage of growth. The vision is clear: welcoming tables in communities across the country, where people can share food, knowledge, lived experience, resources, and support.

This next phase focuses on facilitator development, relationship-led growth, and strengthening the infrastructure needed for lasting impact - not rapid scale, but thoughtful expansion that protects the warmth and trust at the heart of every table.

BECOME A FACILITATOR


Help bring a table to your community.


We are developing a supported facilitator pathway for people who want to help hold Prosperity Potlucks™ in their own communities.

This pathway is for people who:

+ Value meaningful conversation and know how to hold space
+ Care deeply about community and want to see it thrive
+ Enjoy bringing people together across different backgrounds
+ Are willing to learn and hold the format with care
+ Want to support connection, shared action, and local growth

Register Your Interest

We'll be in touck to explore whether this feels like a mutual fit.

This is currently a supported community facilitator pathway, not a paid role. Pulse on Prosperity® Working Together CIC covers training, support, and the facilitator meal. Registering interest is the first step to an initial conversation.

THE WIDER MOVEMENT

What grows around the table.

Prosperity Potlucks™ are part of the wider Pulse on Prosperity® movement - a growing ecosystem where people, ideas, opportunities, and resources are shared to strengthen communities together.

Many conversations continue long after the meal has finished. From the tables, people collaborate on projects, share resources, support one another's work, and strengthen local partnerships and ecosystems.

 

✦ Prosperity Spark

An initiative to support community-led ideas and projects that emerge through the relationships, insight, and shared action sparked around the tables.
