We have been developing our cooperation with for five years Wrocław Social Cooperative. In 2025, we plan to organize a series of free events for the local community, including walking tours of the estate, craft workshops, and empowerment workshops for employees of the Municipal Social Welfare Center, as well as, with the local partnership, celebrating the fifth edition of the Plac Grunwaldzki Estate Festival.

Building lasting relationships requires commitment. Since the beginning of our presence in Grunwald, Wrocławska Spółdzielnia Socjalna has actively participated in the local partnership "Nasz Grunwald" and is our partner in developing the NGO Center space at 63a Marii Skłodowskiej-Curie Street.

With the needs of the local community in mind, for another year in a row we have created a program of activities to enrich our Center's offerings. In 2025, we will meet both at our headquarters at Skłodowskiej-Curie 63a for craft workshops and development meetings, and outdoors for picnics and themed walks.

Activities that we implemented in the first half of 2025 in cooperation with the Wrocław Social Cooperative:

8 thematic walking tours around the Plac Grunwaldzki estate as part of the "Outdoor Workshop" series„

Spring and summer are the perfect time for walking! This year's edition of our walking tour series is divided into four thematic blocks: memories of residents; on the trail of nature; dialogue around Szczytnicka Street and Rondo Reagan; and the history of the Clinics.

8 creative workshops for craft lovers as part of the "Return to Craft" series„

During the workshops, we will explore traditional handicraft techniques. During the six scheduled sessions, Plac Grunwaldzki OD NOWA will transform into a sewing studio. Two additional workshops are dedicated to Deaf people and will be led by Monika Splotka and Zakwas Studio.

2 empowerment workshops for field team employees Municipal Social Welfare Center in Wrocław

Agnieszka developed and led workshops for social workers at the Wrocław Social Welfare Center (MOPS). The workshops focused on supporting and developing the team's communication skills. Participants learned the principles of communication based on NVC methodology, acquired tools for effectively setting boundaries and promoting their own well-being in the workplace, developed methods for providing constructive feedback, learned to empathetically express their needs and emotions, honed active listening and open dialogue, and developed the ability to provide constructive feedback.
