Groundwork
Lancashire West & Wigan

Our work

Brighter alleyways

Groundwork's purpose is to 'build sustainable communities in areas of need through joint environmental action'

To do this, we deliver projects and programmes in partnership in five key areas:

Communities: building stronger neighbourhoods
Land: reconnecting people with their surroundings
Employment: training for work and stimulating enterprise
Education: learning, citizenship and sustainability
Business: integrating the economy and the environment
Youth: realising young people's potential

You can find out more about our six key themes using the menu to the right.
