Local authorities are one of Groundwork’s most important groups of partners. We work closely with local authorities across the South West to help them shape their places and improve local quality of life.
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 South West and we sit on a number of LSPs and other local structures. 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 - and meet those crucial LAA targets.
How is your area moving towards a low carbon economy?
From structured volunteering to formal placements with employers, we help people move on a journey back towards employment.
We seek to harness a crucial catalyst for change: community pride.
Groundwork have done a great job in bringing on board local residents – giving them real ownership over this fantastic project
