Your Awarded Community dashboard and how to use it

This is where you get to deepen actions in the five objectives and beyond if you wish, to create lasting change and drive more single use plastic reduction where you live. None of this is compulsory. But we also know you won’t want to stop after the first chapter!

You’ll see you have a slightly different dashboard now. We haven’t got rid of your old one, or all of the work you uploaded. It now sits within your awarded community dashboard and this is the dashboard you’ll now use year on year to continue your journey

All of your accumulative actions and work is saved in the ‘Progress Tracker’ tab for you to go back and look at whenever you need. We also will share your annual survey results and your impact report in this tab at the end of each calendar year, based on the survey responses you get and the information you’ve told us in the dashboard.

There is a ‘Resources’ tab with bespoke kits to help you with your onward journey, including links to our key campaigns on plastic pollution which you can add your community voice to. There are also blogs and other pieces of content you can share with your local platforms.

So, onto your actual ‘Dashboard’. On this there are three sections; one to tell us how you are deepening work in the five objectives, another to tell us about other work you are doing locally and a third if you’d like to upload an annual report (this isn’t compulsory but some communities like to).

Simply update your dashboard throughout the year with all your actions and you’ll see your cumulative progress build in the progress tracker.  All you need to do is update your dashboard each year with your actions and we can continue to mark you as an ‘active’ community on our PFC map.

There is a video here to learn more about the dashboard.

We’re stoked to be on this journey with you. For more on your post award journey check out our workshops and other resources in the tab.
