Groundwork and local businesses

We help local businesses put their corporate responsibility strategies into action by connecting them with communities, reducing their impact on the environment and helping them build social value into their services.

For over four decades, we’ve been working in partnership with businesses in all sectors to help them make a difference on the ground. From major national partnerships to one-off employee volunteering events, we work flexibly with businesses to understand their needs and design programmes that benefit their employees and customers as well as the communities in which they operate. 

Business Improvement Districts

More and more businesses around the country are benefiting from the advantages that being part of a Business Improvement District (BID) can bring.

Groundwork CLM is widely recognised as one of the UK’s leading BID experts. Our team of BID delivery specialists help business parks, town centre management companies and local authorities to implement Business Improvement District (BID) projects in their areas. And we could help you.
