About Groundwork CLM
Groundwork Cheshire Lancashire & Merseyside is a charity mobilising practical community action on poverty and the environment across the UK.
We’re 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.
We believe that building more resilient local communities is vital in facing up to the challenges of a globalised economy and a changing climate.
We know that the negative effects of climate change and environmental breakdown impact first and worst on those who have the least power in society, and who contribute least to the cause of the crisis. A ‘just transition’ to net-zero carbon emissions must tackle, rather than entrench, this inequality and provide a springboard for better work and healthier, happier lives in the places that need it most.
This means creating green jobs that build wealth in local communities, changing behaviour to reduce wasted food, energy and water, providing biodiverse, accessible green spaces and empowering communities to lead activities that improve their quality of life and promote health and wellbeing.
