About us
We want to see thriving neighbourhoods and flourishing places that enrich the lives of all who live, work and play in them.
What we believe
All over the UK there is untapped potential hidden in local communities. Ideas to be implemented, meaningful connections to be made, people to be encouraged, undiscovered local talent to be found and voices to engage.
What we do
We focus on communities in areas of deprivation, weaving together people, spaces, enterprises and local leadership to generate sustainable social and economic value. By establishing a Placemaking Guild of business owners, local governance, educators, community leaders and more, we create catalytic networks who shape the future of their place.
How we do it
We start with a community-led discovery process to understand the needs and opportunities within an area from a variety of perspectives. These insights reveal potential third spaces, for which we hold training and facilitation activities to support new enterprises, social action projects and community events for social good.
