Collaborating with communities
Strong, active and connected communities hold the solutions to many of the challenges we face.
Case studies
Many public sector organisations are asking themselves how they can collaborate with local people effectively and equitably and invest in the conditions that give people the opportunity and means to participate in their own services and communities. We help organisations understand why and how to collaborate with local people and service users, making space for others to exercise power and enable community-led action.
