Social Action Programme
Our Social Action Programme is an exciting initiative aimed at empowering communities in coming together to make a positive impact on the world and the places around them. This effective and invaluable programme is designed to encourage collaboration and co-operation. It gives individuals the opportunity to join forces with like-minded people and achieve more than they could on their own.
Groundwork Five Counties’ Social Action Programme can be integrated with any of our other products.
Fully funded support
All our projects are fully funded by local and national funders. This means all the support we give to individuals and communities is completely free of charge to them.
