1. Identify effective measures organisations are currently employing to mitigate the impact of rising living costs on their members. 2. Evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of various strategies across different organisational types. 3. Assess the long-term benefits of implementing regenerative policies and their impact on organisational sustainability. 4. Explore innovative approaches to support members' financial well-being beyond direct monetary assistance.

Living wage implementation: Establishing a wage that allows workers to afford a decent standard of living for themselves and their families.
Universal Basic Income: establishes a long lasting income for all involved, non means tested.
