I’m not sure how to get started with building a community and putting on information that is useful

Me neither but it’s important to keep away from just a mobile phone or a commercial app - because I can’t afford to pay for it - this only cost me £30 for a whole year.
For me, it’s a good way to store my progress on a system - as it’s going to be professional - so it can’t be on WhatsApp as it is designed for chat and scrolling in short form.
And I have to create a team based on needs, the collaborative process for a business plan and a proper program that would take a year ?
Then, so I’m applying to do A social enterprise for next April - as I won 2 places on The Business School in Social Ventures with Cambridge University.
There is no point in setting out a plan without other people involved. I have a background in business and that’s not how I would do it - because it has to be involved with a/the team and then I can see who’s up for it or not ?
I’ve done it before and it’s hard work so I don’t want to put lots of time into it and then people chicken out?
April - by then I have to sort it out - who will be involved and what the costing is and I don’t want to do it if people aren’t serious

I find that becoming overwhelmed does not help. I struggle with this. I haven't used this platform before. I have always used whatsapp or zoom to communicate during this time.
