How to get in touch with our team
Each year we make an incredible impact on the ground.
Our local programmes and services are tailored to the needs of partners and communities in that locality. When all that local activity is added together, it becomes a major national force for change.
We work on over 700 individual projects each year – focused on disadvantaged communities within the East Midlands. We measure our impact in various ways – for example area of land improved and amount of carbon saved – but what’s most important is how we change people’s lives. These quotes speak for themselves:
“Thank you for providing me the opportunity each week the chance to get better”
Neil Wittington, Volunteer, Groundwork Greater Nottingham
“I’m hoping to one day work in the construction industry and the qualifications and skills I achieve will help me do this. I have met new friends, feel happier and so much more confident than I did when I finished school.”
Liam Huges, Volunteer, Groundwork Creswell, Ashfield & Mansfield
