How to get in touch with our team
Groundwork South West helps people and organisations make changes in order to create better neighbourhoods, to build skills and job prospects, and to live and work in a greener way. We know that the important issues are all connected – so our work can’t easily be placed in boxes marked 'environmental issues’, 'regeneration', 'employment' or 'health'. We create projects and services that benefit both people and the wider environment. We operate across the South West region of England and work on dozens of individual projects each year. We focus our activity on disadvantaged communities where we can make most difference.
We really make a difference on the ground. Read some key statistics about the impact of our work.
Groundwork is a federation of independent charities. Each Groundwork Trust is a member of the federation, and signs up to a series of common aims, objectives and processes.
We carry out our work through the passion and dedication of key groups of professional staff.
We set ourselves high standards and measure our results
We work alongside other organisations – ranging from the smallest community group to multinational businesses to help people create change.
