The Power of Resilience CIC

The Power of Resilience CIC The Power of Resilience CIC is a non-profit Christian ethos initiative building resilience. Welcome to The Power of Resilience CIC. Glad you can join us today.

This initiative was started as a response to a heart-felt need to see those in the communuty build up their resilience and strength, especially during the 'unprecedendented' times of the Covid-19 pandemic. Our Executive Director, Julie Mallinson, has lived-experienced of ongoing trauma and crisis over a number of years, emotionally, mentally and physically and have to 'press through' and develop resilience, picking herself up time and time again from rock bottom and reinventing and rebuilding her life. She had so many people say 'I don't know how you do it?'

As she shares some of her story and hope through workshops, training and events, she brings hope for the here and now and the future too.

Today our Homeschool group got hands-on with a brilliantly practical investigation into sell by, best before, and use by dates — and what these labels really mean in everyday life.

The children explored how food quality changes over time and learned how to use their senses to judge whether something is still good to eat. They compared appearance, texture, smell and discovered that being “in date” doesn’t always mean a food is at its best. One of the biggest surprises of the day was that the mouldy blackberries — despite looking dramatic — had almost no smell at all, sparking lots of curious questions and theories.

Using donated items, the group sorted through a range of foods, checked date labels, and predicted which items might still be fine and which had spoiled. We also brought along some intentionally aged fruit and dairy so they could see real examples of deterioration up close.

To finish the session, the children put their learning into action by adding suitable items to the Community Pantry at Thompson Cross as part of our ongoing community action focus. They loved being able to contribute and see how their learning connects to real-world impact.

This session linked beautifully to multiple curriculum areas:
- Science: microorganisms, decay, sensory investigation, and how materials change over time
- Maths: sorting, sequencing, and comparing dates
- Health & Wellbeing: food safety, hygiene, and making informed choices
- History & Literacy: the origins of food labelling and how it supports consumers today

The children were fully engaged from start to finish — curious, thoughtful, and eager to explore. A fantastic mix of real-world learning, scientific thinking, and community contribution.

Can any of the farms we supported with veg over Christmas have a group of neurodiverse children for a visit during lambing season to feed the lambs?

Or to generally have a walk round to see their animals?
