What we do

We connect and empower people across the length and breadth of the country.

Our priorities

Every year, Enable Communities directly supports people from all over the country to: 

  • be local activists 
  • get specialist information, advice and advocacy 
  • access community-based support across a growing network of local groups and affiliated branches
  • lead campaigns for change 

Our members are at the heart of everything we do. They tell us about the issues that matter most to them. We empower them to speak up and drive the change they want to see.
