About

Rural Community Council for Devon

Devon Communities Together is an independent charity that helps to enable and empower communities across Devon to tackle insecurities and inequalities that can arise from living in a rural county.

Whether in market or coastal towns, villages or hamlets, communities face lots of challenges, which are being exaccerbated by the Cost of Living Crisis. Devon Communities Together supports communities to address these challenges through a wide range of projects and services that make a real difference.

Devon Communities Together’s recent activities have included:
• working with communities to address the lack of affordable housing for local people,
• designing initiatives to help people to access important services such as healthcare,
• supporting people with digital connectivity and skills,
• helping people to develop their own small businesses,
• giving advice to people in fuel poverty,
• supporting Village Halls committees to develop their spaces,
• helping people to address the climate emergency and serious weather conditions at a
local level,
• and many more.

There are already people and groups that are doing wonderful things for their
communities. Devon Communities Together is here to support them to better understand their communities’ needs and create sustainable solutions that have a big impact on the lives of local people.

Devon Communities Together often works with other local charities, bodies and organisations, pooling our expertise to give communities the best possible support. Everything we do is underpinned by our committment to helping Devon’s communities to thrive.

Devon Communities Together is part of the ACRE Network (Action with Communities in Rural England)
