Welcome to Groundwork Black Country

Groundwork Black Country is one of fifty Trusts that make up the national Groundwork Federation. Our purpose is to build sustainable communities in areas of need through joint environmental action to make the Black Country a better place to live and work.
Established in 1988 Groundwork Black Country has considerable experience of partnership working to meet the needs of local communities. We support and work alongside local strategic partnerships and councils, schools, residents’ associations and groups of special interest.
Groundwork Black Country will successfully deliver environmental activity to meet the needs of key partners and help to make the Black Country a better place to live and work.
Groundwork will be seen as a ‘doing’ organisation with a strategic role, achieving high quality, innovative and competitive outcomes in a professional and financially sound manner.
Physical projects include
improvements to the canal infrastructure, parks and open spaces,
and schools. Key to this is the involvement of local people who
develop the skills and knowledge needed to ensure that the work we
undertake brings lasting benefits to the Black Country.
