High Trees is one of 20 ‘Social Action Hubs’ nationally, aimed at rolling out local training and support for community organising into neighbourhoods and institutions across England.
Social Action Hubs are locally accountable organisations working with an experienced Community Organiser to develop Community Organising in their area. Through training local leaders and volunteers at a neighbourhood level, the Hubs will spread community organising skills and ideas and be catalysts for resident-led social action.
