All our work aims to inspire local communities to change and improve.

- We support organisations to exchange ideas and best practice on community asset ownership, community enterprise and social action
- We work to influence government and others at national and local level to build support and investment for the movement
- We run major national programmes to support and empower local communities
We aim to support community anchor organisations, like our members, and help them grow and thrive – read our Theory of Change.
