[LBC #151] Community Week Online Wrap-Up, London Early Bird & New Communiteers
A look back at Community Week Online, London Super Early Bird ending tomorrow, new Communiteers joining the journey, plus events, resources, and roles to explore.

Hi friends!
Let’s catch up on what’s new in the community:
💜 What a week! Community Week Online 2026 brought together 1300+ registrations across 4 days. Thank you to everyone who joined, spoke, hosted, and supported.
We also want to be transparent. Our fundraising campaign had a goal of £10,000, and we raised £475. We didn’t reach our goal, but every contribution meant something and helps us keep building. If you’d still like to support the work, you can contribute here.
🇬🇧 London Community Week is back (and Super Early Bird ends tomorrow!). Join us this July for three days of practical learning, honest conversations, and meaningful connection. Grab your Early Bird ticket while it’s still available.
🗓️ What’s coming up next: Between Roles is happening today, with Local Chapter Meetups and the Community Creators Series just around the corner. Explore the calendar and save your spot.
🎉 New Communiteers have joined us! Toby Fryer is stepping in as Fundraising and Partnerships Manager, and Pedro Hernandes as Founders & Creators Channel Community Manager. And if you’d like to get involved too, you can apply here.
📚 Resources we’re loving this week: from FeverBee on forums and integrity, to insights from Discourse, Circle, Higher Logic, and more. Plus newsletters from Laís de Oliveira, Max Pete, and Jillian Bejtlich.
💼 New roles are being added to our Job Board every day, including a great Community & Social Lead role at Beam. If you’re exploring what’s next, it’s worth taking a look.
Keep scrolling. There’s a lot more waiting for you below. 🙂
With love,
Francisco, Paôla & the Led by Community Team of Volunteers
