Community Support

Strengthening communities through advocacy, resources and partnerships.

Why this matters

Strong communities look after one another. When people are connected, informed and able to act together, support reaches those who need it — and challenges are met with shared strength.

Our community support work responds to the priorities communities set for themselves. It focuses on essential support in times of need, on inclusion, and on building the local capacity that helps communities stay resilient over time.

What we focus on

  • Responding to the priorities communities identify for themselves
  • Providing essential support when people need it most
  • Encouraging inclusion, so no one is left on the margins
  • Strengthening local capacity and community leadership
  • Building connection between people, groups and services
