It is well known that in order to create sustainable change and improvement in an area, the local community should be engaged and involved in the process. In reality, this can often be a difficult and challenging feat. Barriers to funding and support for local initiatives can mean that even the most fantastic and innovative grassroots ideas can fall flat at the first hurdle.

Communities are well placed to understand local challenges and throughout our work, we have witnessed people contribute innovative solutions to problems they are passionate about.
