Groundwork London

Groundwork London works with communities across the capital to transform their lives and the places they live. We have been at the forefront of social and environmental regeneration in London for over 25 years, and today we have a simple mission: to create better places, improve people's prospects, and promote greener living and working. We are passionate about creating a future where every neighbourhood is vibrant and green, every community is strong and able to shape its own destiny, and no-one is held back by their background or circumstances. This vision drives the work that we do. Each year we deliver hundreds of innovative projects across London, tackling the biggest issues facing our communities. With the support of our funders and partners across the public, private, and voluntary sector, and within the communities themselves, we can create real and lasting, positive change. We empower people to engage in local decision-making and voluntary action to improve their communities. We make neighbourhoods greener and more resilient to the impact of climate change and the increasing demands of a growing population. We support long-term unemployed individuals in finding work. We help young people get back into education and training, and we advise residents and businesses how to live more sustainably and reduce their waste, energy, and water use.
