Sustainable Communities

A further aspect of sustainable development is to build communities that are stable, cohesive and inclusive - through provision for people's diverse needs, enhancement of their quality of life and creation of opportunities and choice.

In such a sustainable community, people who choose to live there have sufficient services and support to meet their requirements.

This is the most broad-ranging meaning of sustainable development, encompassing all the economic, environmental and social aspects.

For voluntary and community organisations, community sustainability has many practical expressions: volunteer services that enable people to stay in their community; disability access groups; residents associations; health support groups; youth work; activity clubs; etc.

Supporting such organisations is at the core of the work of High Peak CVS, where our development workers can assist with:

• Charity Registration
• Policy Writing
• Writing Constitutions
• Project Management
• Business Plans

• Starting Groups
• Team Building
• Employing Staff
• Running Meetings
