Community Action Fund

To confirm you are in scope, please can you answer the following questions using either a few short bullets or a short video submission?

This is not an application, so please do not worry about these being lengthy or polished answers. 

Please feel free to copy and paste directly from existing documents or share web links. 

  1. What is the name of your organisation and what does it do?
  2. How is the community you represent involved in your organisation? Is it led by people in this community? If not, are they meaningfully involved in setting strategy?
    a. Community can apply to your local area, or the particular group you represent. For example: people living with disabilities, people with experience of the immigration or asylum system, people of colour, working class communities, women, and LGBTQI communities.
  3. How is your organisation building the power of this community?
    a. For example, please tell us about the specific work you are doing to win change through community organising, campaigning, or democratic engagement.
  4. What steps are you taking to build solidarity with others outside your community and ensure your work to build power does not create division?

If you have any questions, or would like help answering the questions please do not hesitate to get in touch with us at contact@civicpower.org.uk.

When people work together to build coalitions, contest big ideas, and make things happen, that’s democracy in action.
