Local authorities are key partners for Groundwork.
We can work with you to develop bespoke projects that deliver for local people and for your targets. Our projects range from relatively straightforward contract work, to entrepreneurial, experimental, risk taking projects that are innovative and creative and that solve problems.
Many local authorities are legal members of Groundwork Trusts and we sit on LSPs and other local structures around the UK. We have a shared understanding of the local area and local priorities, which gives us a head start in creating initiatives that will really work on the ground.
Groundwork has a proven track record in supporting neighbourhoods viewed as disadvantaged or hard to reach.
Groundwork can work with local authorities to help support communities through the current period of recession.
The projects do have a wider benefit, it’s not just about making the area look nice, it is about really building community spirit
