What we do
Kent Small Good Stuff does two things:
We link people who need care or support with local people who might help.
We help small organisations that offer care or support. We provide them with information, publicity and access to a friendly network.
What we believe
We're the friendly website that believes:
People want care and support at times and in ways that suit them.
Local people helping other local people is good for everyone and for communities.
Very small organisations can offer great care and be imaginative and responsive.
Very small organisations struggle to tell people what they can offer (they don’t have huge marketing budgets like the big guys).
Looking for care or support?
We can help you find local support
If you are looking for some help or support please search on our directory using your postcode to find local people who can help – we call the people and small organisations on our directory community micro-enterprises.
Interested in offering care or support?
