From day one our focus has been on working within and with the community. We have learnt that community development is not about doing things to people or for them, it is about being a facilitator, to allow them to do it for themselves.

The foundations of our society have been weakened over a decade.
Life expectancy stalled for the first time in a century.
Child poverty shot up to over four million.

Pleased to see @ReadingCouncil & @ReadingLabour pressing ahead with this activity centre in Prospect Park, will definitely be taking my kids there when completed. Park upgrades/improvements to Cintra, Long Barn, Shinfield & Rabsons Rec also coming along. @rdgchronicle reporting.
