About Groundwork West Midlands

Working across the West Midlands, we focus our activities on communities where we can make a difference. We are committed to creating a future with community at its core, one that is vibrant and green, and in which everybody can shape their own destiny and reach their full potential. We are the community charity with a green heart. Groundwork takes practical action to create a fair and green future in which people, places, and nature thrive. We support local communities and businesses to build capacity and resilience as this is vital if we are to tackle hardship, achieve a just transition to net-zero and help nature recover in a way that reduces inequality and leads to better work and healthier, happier lives.
