We’re interested in designing and delivering projects that help improve the environment, public health, crime and anti-social behaviour, protection of the elderly and vulnerable, community cohesion, local economic resilience, democracy and civic involvement, education and general well-being.
We’re particularly interested in projects that have the potential to be taken to scale through replication on a community-by-community basis.
We’re really excited to announce the launch of our latest project, Trees for Streets – the UK’s first National Street Tree Sponsorship Scheme. This helps local councils raise much needed funding for street trees. It also enables residents to make a positive contribution to their local neighbourhood.
Find out how we plan to plant ¼ million street trees and empower local communities in the process.
We also have a number of projects that are sitting in our ‘simmering pot’ waiting for the team to get some time to breathe life into them.
We’re also very interested in hearing from individuals and organisations who have ideas that they’d like to get developed. We can work together to make these a reality.
We’re always keen to hear from organisations – ranging from local government to corporates with a CSR agenda – who want to make a positive social impact ‘starting’ at a local level.
If your organisation is genuine in it’s desire – we’d love to speak with you.
Interested in speaking with us about a project you’d like us to get off the ground, or you’d just like a chat, then do drop get in contact at hello@startwithlocal.org.uk We’re a friendly bunch.
