The Shoelace Approach: Tying Risk to Resilience

At CKC CARES, we lace mission and sustainability together. While one side identifies the friction of digital change, the other provides the structure to manage it.

The Wide Lace: CKC Cares CIC (The Scaffolding)

This is our foundation of Human Scaffolding. We meet people where they are, especially individuals who feel anxious or invisible in digital change happening around them.

Our goal is to provide the tools, audio orientations, and reflection exercises that protect a person’s identity and dignity.

The Learning Marker:

When someone completes a Level 1 experience, they receive a Learning Marker, a signal that they now possess the common language needed to stay grounded while the digital foundation shifts.

The Aglet: CKC Cares Ventures Ltd (Managing the ZDI)

This is the tip that helps professionals move through the Zone of Disrupted Identity (ZDI) with clarity. Ventures is designed for teams and leaders who recognise that “redundancy” is often just a failure of the system to see the human.

Here, our goal is to provide high-level strategy, risk assessments, and policy frameworks that prevent the Digital Saboteur from taking root.

The Impact:

We help organisations scaffold human transformation and conduct harm, risk, and identity-drift testing, ensuring decisions are not made on the basis of digital hallucinations or flattened data.

• The CIC builds the Human Scaffolding that keeps the community safe.
• Ventures Ltd manages the ZDI to keep organisations ethical and effective.

They are legally separate and operate independently, but they are tied by one purpose: Human Safety in the era of AI & Intelligence.

Our Shop (ckccaresshop.com) is the knot in the middle and the place where community learning and professional practice meet.
