Policy and Communications Assistant
London (Hybrid)
About the Organisation
Our client believes there is a need to put more power, resources, and decision making into the hands of communities. They do this by trusting people. Their programme demonstrates the value of long-term, unconditional, resident-led funding through supporting communities to make their areas better places to live. They commit funds at the outset, and then support residents to develop their own plans to spend the funding in ways that they collectively agree will improve their area and the lives of those living there. They draw on the learning from their work to promote a wider transformation in the way policy-makers, funders and others engage with communities and places.
