Our Philosophy- Moar Communities


We have always believed in the power of listening. Now more than ever communities are having to listen to each other and agencies and government listen to them too. The new Localism Bill is one example of local voices wielding more power. All our support services are designed to promote clearer and stronger levels of engagement between citizens, communities and service providers.	Urban myth and rumours can destroy neighbourhoods as communities look inwardly and agencies fail to engage meaningfully. A trusting ‘partnership’ between services and residents is required to advance stronger communities promoting and supporting services. We focus upon developing ‘Critical Friends’ who are key to building real solutions in communities where they live, work and play.

In the current austere climate where many public services are stretched to their limit and resources and expertise are at a premium we ensure that we work with you to adopt a frugal yet directly impactive approach.	We ensure that all our bespoke solutions are forward-thinking with longevity at their heart. Enabling all our partners to ensure successful projects and programmes are robust and sustainable long into the future.

Whilst constantly working closely with key agencies at governance and operational level our ethos is strongly underpinned by a joint commitment with our partners to delivering change in their communities. We will helpreduce crime and fear of crime, foster greater community ownership and support you in promoting positive community values.	One of the greatest obstacles to effective community building is the jargon-filled world of policy and planning. Our strength is in consistently using ‘Plain-English’ and maintaining a wholly inclusive approach in all our activity. We constantly raise the voice of young people, older people, diverse communities and specialist charity and community groups.
