Our projects
We focus on projects that get local residents talking and doing things in groups. Things that get them motivated and interested in their local area and all of the other people around them.
The sort of activities that bring people and communities together, with shared interests, to create a sense of belonging.
What we have delivered for communities
We foster local heritage and enrich lives via collaboration and community leisure, arts and transport projects, like the Bourne Bus. We help to create unique educational and cultural experiences, like music, arts and food festivals and QR heritage trails.
The Bourne Bus
Providing local transport for rural towns and villages for residents of all ages.
Bourne heritage trail
QR heritage trail covering Westbourne, Chidham, Southbourne and the Octagon.
The Langstone Loop
14 mile harbourside trail with over 60 heritage and nature sites highlighted.
Music and food festivals
We develop and create the events that communities want, then help them to fund and run them so that the whole local area gets the most out of them, and has the most fun too!
These include getting bands from around the world to play at local venues, creating food and drink events, and family events in local towns and villages that bring people all together.
Celebrating local life
Local life is about history, heritage, buildings and nature, but also the people that made it, local traditions and trades and how things have changed in the social fabric around people.
QR heritage trails highlight the things that make every area different, but so does the celebration of its local food and drink, music, entertainment and its famous people too!
We're currently helping to create a lasting legacy to PG Wodehouse, who spent much of his writing life in Emsworth
