Our Mission
At the WOR HOOSE Community Project we believe we are always stronger together; our welcoming community project is a place where we can all belong, have fun, and help shape the future of our community.
We focus on building relationships with local people that lead to practical, community solutions. By working together we strengthen connections, solve challenges, and create change that starts small but grows big.
We are committed to improving local people's lives and bridging the gap between grassroots action and wider community transformations, When people feel safe, connected, and valued, they dont just change their communities, they go onto change the system itself.
Our mission is to reduce isolation, increase employabilty, improve wellbeing, bring people together, and provide an inclusive space.
We run a range of different activities and opportunites to learn and which are fun, inclusive and encourage friends
