We help charities, community groups and other third-sector organisations in Mid Devon.

We aim:

To help develop strong and informed communities with a VCSE sector which is valued and meets the needs of the community.

To provide opportunities and support to enable people to participate and feel a valued member of their community

To enable people to connect with services in their community.

To raise our profile across Mid-Devon communities to best fulfil these aims

We do this through:

• Developing the capacity, skills and knowledge of groups throughout Mid Devon;
• Connecting groups to facilitate and promote joint working;
• Building the influence of the sector and helping people to become active in their community.
• Running projects to support the wellbeing of people within our communities

We run a number of different community projects including:

Devon People First - An award-winning project for people with learning disabilities across Devon.

Community Builders - connecting and developing relationships within their community, encouraging collaboration, shared learning and mutual support and setting up groups in response to local need. 

Wellbeing Coordinators - to support the Culm Valley Primary Care Network. Wellbeing Coordinators provide a vital service bridging the gap between PCN services and community support.

Mid Devon Food Network - a regular get together may help with information sharing, surplus sharing, and general good practice.

Community Wellbeing Alliances - to develop, maintain and enhance services for people in our communities providing peer-to-peer support and encouraging health and wellbeing in the community.

Cullompton Youth Club - an exciting project was set up in response to there being no regular co-ordinated under 18 youth provision for Cullompton.
