From Grassroots to Boardroom – Oldham Council

• Lead Member Oldham Council
• Categories Community

Community involvement in Oldham means more than asking residents for their views. We’re empowering local people to take ownership, as part of our ambition to create a co-operative borough where everyone does their bit, and everybody benefits.  Projects include:

• VEG IN THE PARK – a grassroots project
• OLDHAM FOOD NETWORK – a co-operative approach
• GREEN DIVIDEND – co-operative communities
• GET OLDHAM GROWING – creating the right climate
• GROWING OLDHAM: Feeding Ambition Partnership – the boardroom

The most effective way to design services and deliver outcomes that matter to residents is to do it with them; or even better, to create the right conditions for them to do it for themselves.
