Community Catalysts is a social enterprise that creates opportunities for people to thrive in healthy, caring communities.  

Our vision, mission and values

Our vision is a good life for everyone. 

Our mission is to build and grow connections, enterprises and support within local communities that help people live good lives and their voices to be heard. 

We believe in the strengths of people and communities. Our values underpin everything that we do. 

Our purpose

People who draw on care and support tell us that they find it difficult to live a life that works for them. Traditional care and support options, while necessary, are limited and stretched. The evidence also tells us that:

• The demand for health and care services is growing exponentially across all communities.
• Systems for meeting need are overwhelmed and on an unsustainable course.
• Health inequalities between different groups of people and places are increasing.

Preventive, community-based support is not prioritised enough as part of the solution.

That’s where we can help.

Our strategic aims and priorities

1. Create choice and control for people – we will ensure that people can choose from diverse and flexible care and support that is personalised – support that works for them.
2. Put people’s strengths and talents first – we will support the creation of a world where people can use their own skills and talents to achieve their vision of a good life. 
3. Actively listen to people’s voices – we will work with public sector bodies and organisations to include the voices of people in shaping service design and delivery.
4. Innovate for a positive future – we will help policy makers, public sector bodies and organisations to create an environment that supports and encourages innovative practice and solutions.
