About us . . .
At GL11 we believe we are always stronger together; our welcoming community hub is a place where we can all belong, have fun, and shape the future of our community.
We focus on building relationships with local people that lead to practical, community solutions. By working side by side, we strengthen connections, solve challenges, and create change that starts small but grows big.
We are committed to shaping the system and bridging the gap between grassroots action and wider transformation. When people feel safe, connected, and valued, they don't just change their communities, they change the system itself.
Our mission …
We run a range of different activities and opportunities to learn and which are fun, inclusive and encourage friendship and support when you are facing problems.
We run activities for residents of the GL11 postcode area which covers Cam, Dursley, Uley and North Nibley. We also run out-reach activities beyond GL11; we run a play group in Sharpness and we offer counselling for adults in Wotton-under-Edge and Berkeley.
Take a look at our What’s On Guide, Volunteering and Support for You sections to find out more.
We are also known for our super powers in adaptability: we change what we do to respond quickly to the needs of our community. For example, we put together a network of Street Volunteers during Covid lockdown, another huge team of volunteers to help with the vaccination programme, and we sent out lunch parcels at short notice in the “Half-term Hunger” crisis.
