Building Communities
“The area has a good community spirit, if we stick together we can make it thrive”
The main focus of the Building Communities programme is to ensure that community involvement is increased, is central to the whole NDC programme, and that local people are supported to take a leading role within the NDC area.
Key elements of the Building Communities Theme are:
- An empowered community
- A thriving third sector
- Capacity building
Key themes within the Building Communities Programme include:
- Community Development Team
- Community Chest
- Communications
- Intensive Neighbourhood Management
- Support for older people
- Community facilities support
- Learning and development support
- Time Banking Project
