Diagram of Communities Care

Communities Care

We help people and communities across the country to use their talents to start and run small enterprises and community businesses that support and care for other local people. They create good local jobs, keep money in the local economy and help people live a good life.

People Can

People sometimes need support in their lives. The support needed can overshadow their strengths and skills. We help people use their own strengths and talents, as well as those of their community, to achieve their vision of a good life. We do this by growing strength-based approaches such as Local Area Coordination and Family and Group Conferencing for Adults.

We help policy makers, the public sector and providers of care and support to create an environment that supports and encourages innovation in the design and delivery of solutions. We want you to see the possibilities and support you to make it happen.
