How to contact our team
Local authorities are Groundwork’s most important group of partners. We work closely with over 15 local authorities across London to help them shape their places and improve local quality of life.
We can work with you to develop bespoke projects that deliver for local people and for your targets. Our projects range from relatively straightforward contract work, to entrepreneurial, experimental, risk-taking projects that are innovative and creative and that solve problems.
We work closely with local authorities, many of which sit on our Board, Sub-Regional Committees or Borough Steering Groups. We also sit on a number of LSPs and other local groups and bodies. This gives us a shared understanding of the local area and local priorities, which gives us a head start in creating initiatives that will really work on the ground.
Our work includes:
We find out what’s really important to different groups within local communities.
Helping with the transition to a low carbon economy
We help people to retrain, gain confidence and gain valuable work experience
