Developing local leaders, driving nationwide change

We know everyday people have the ability to shape the world around them. Together, we put the power back into people’s hands to hold those responsible to account by bringing people together across their differences, to find common ground and win change​.

We build positive working relationships between communities, elected power-holders and businesses, making sure everyone is heard and no one is left out.

We work with hundreds of civil society organisations, who we call our members - schools, universities, faith groups, charities, unions and more - to help them make change in their communities.

Over the last 30 years, we've worked in alliance with 500+ members, trained 4,000+ community leaders, accredited 16,000 Living Wage employers, and won hundreds of campaigns.
