Flourish Community Life

"A true community is not just about being geographically close to someone or part of the same social web network. It's about feeling connected and responsible for what happens. Humanity is our ultimate community, and everyone plays a crucial role."
Yehuda Berg


Do you talk to your neighbours? Do you support local shops and businesses? Do you belong to local clubs and societies? Are you involved with your children's school, the church, the library, neighbourhood events? These aren't questions to make you feel uncomfortable if the answer is no, but just to get you to think about how you might become more involved, more connected with people around you.

Community life is being eroded. Those places where people traditionally gathered to play, celebrate, learn, connect are disappearing on an unprecedented scale. Some of this has come about because of government cut-backs - the closure of libraries, for instance - but much of it has also happened because of lack of support.

Common Ground
For the last thirty years we have worked both locally and nationally to create practical and philosophical ways of helping people build new relationships between culture and nature, collaborating widely across the arts and with academics, teachers, architects, gardeners, farmers, poets, botanists, film-makers, foresters and storytellers, all of whom help us seek new, imaginative ways to engage people with their local environment and celebrate the intimate connections communities have with the landscape that surrounds them.
