About Us
Groundwork Greater Nottingham
Groundwork Greater Nottingham is a registered
charitable trust and company limited by guarantee. It is part
of the Groundwork federation of over fifty trusts located
in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. We are committed to
improving the quality of life for local people. We have been
working in disadvantaged areas since we were established in
1991.
We consult with and work closely with local
people to achieve sustainable improvements to local areas.
We work in partnership with many other organisations to secure
funding to support our work for local communities.
Our strategic direction is determined by
the board of directors which
is made up of local councillors, business people and individuals
dedicated to improving the Greater Nottingham area.
We operate from offices located in Radford, one of the most
disadvantaged parts of the sub-region. The Trust's dedicated
staff are skilled in translating the aspirations of local
communities into programmes and projects that make a sustainable
impact on their local areas.
Our area of operation covers the four areas
of Broxtowe Borough, Gedling Borough, Nottingham City and
Rushcliffe.
