Start With Local

We’re on a mission to help solve some of society’s biggest problems – one neighbourhood at a time. All too often people give up or don’t even start because of the sheer scale of some of the challenges we face. If you do something amazing in one community, it gives you a great starting point to do it everywhere. That’s why we’re called #Start with Local. So what’s on our radar? Community cohesion, health, environment, education, economic resilience, democracy, crime, how we care for the elderly and vulnerable, our general well-being – to name but a few. We are a ‘local’ design and delivery agency - We identify problems facing communities, and deliver programmes that address these - We’re looking for projects that can succeed in one neighbourhood, and then be taken to scale by replicating them in many neighbourhoods - We can be commissioned by third-parties – government, corporations, and charities What drives us- Empowering local communities - Improving well-being - Making the world a better place - Demonstrating the power of local - Being a little mischievous HOW do we go about doing this- Mixing together the right people – community, experts and partners - Embracing tech and the commercial world - Being passionate, tenacious, fun/colourful, engaging, exciting, open-minded - Being innovative – do things differently
