Community Roots CIC’s aim is to ignite action to bring about social change in communities. We use the principles of Community Organising to facilitate change that builds strong, welcoming and resilient communities based on what really matters to residents. We believe residents given the right conditions and support are best placed to make a difference to where they live.
We have 3 main strands to our work that helps fulfill our aim to bring about social change in communities, which include our grassroots community organising work with residents, delivery of excellent training courses to those with a passion and interest in communities and igniting community enterprise through our Revival Room business initiative.
