Up and down the UK people are working together to support each other, create good local jobs and improve their areas. And by doing so, communities help to tackle some of the biggest problems facing us.
Problems like inequality, local decline, loneliness and mistrust. Together we are a movement for Community Power. Together we can change the system and bring about a Community Power Act. Here we are showcasing just some of the change makers behind our movement.

Our Vision
People should have the power to shape their places and communities should have the rights and tools they need to come together and take control of their own futures.
Our Mission
The We’re Right Here campaign is working to build a united movement for community power, spanning places and communities across the UK as well as the political spectrum.
