Share Your Ideas - Community Activities Near You.

Our Communities Connected programme brings together customers, colleagues, and community partners for hands-on neighbourhood activities that make a real difference. From local clean-ups and creative workshops to wellbeing events and celebration days – there’s something for everyone! Everything is built around our six community priorities, intending to create places we’re all proud to call home.

  • Team days transforming community venues
• Digital 4 Everyone
  • Local support with access and skills throughout the year
• Communities Together
  • Free local events and initiatives
  • Connecting different communities
• Safer Communities
  • Events and initiatives with partners to tackle fly-tipping, hate crime awareness, promote property-marking & more
• Sustainable Communities
  • Promotion of reduce, re-use and recycle initiatives; wildlife-friendly initiatives; active travel; planting
• Healthy Communities
  • Seated exercise, walking sports, opportunities to sample activities for all ages; healthy eating; healthy choices; access to healthcare

If there is something you’d like to see in your community during our Communities Connected programme for 2026 (11^th to 22nd May &19^th to 30^th October), please let us know on the ideas board below. While we can’t guarantee to deliver on every suggestion, we will ensure we review every one & publish a list of events we will be hosting nearer the time on our volunteering hub, Platform Connected, which you can sign up to here.

As part of our Spring Communities Connected we will be running a Estate Services Day - this is a day when members of our Grounds Maintenance team get out and carry out work in our communities which might be outside their usual work. If you would like to request some of the team come and help in your area, then please complete the survey form to tell us more. We will not be able to attend all suggestions, and completing the form is not a guarantee that we will visit your site, however, we will assess all suggestions and may contact you for more information regarding your project.

We look forward to hearing from you.

The closing date for the ideas board and survey is 28th February.

To participate in this survey and receive rewards, you must be a Platform customer.
