What is Groundwork?
Groundwork Merthyr and RCT are part of a federation of Trusts located throughout Wales, England and Northern Ireland which is a partnership between the public, private and voluntary sectors. Each Trust works independently with its local partners to improve the quality of the local environment, the lives of the local people and the success of local businesses in areas in need of investment and support.
The aims of the Trusts are to bring benefits equally for:
People - creating opportunities for people to learn new skills and become more active citizens
Places - delivering environmental improvements that create cleaner, safer and greener neighbourhoods
Prosperity - helping businesses and individuals fulfil their potential
