Gladstone Connect's aim is to establish a co-ordinated and integrated approach to improving the quality of life of local people, by tackling the deep-rooted problems in Gladstone, such as; poverty, unemployment, lack of education and skills, lack of financial and business help, poor stock and a shortage of housing, poor health, lack of facilities and support for young people and high levels of crime.

To achieve this, we will:

• promote the participation of local residents within the regeneration of the area

• run initiatives in our own right. We are, in particular, the lead body for the local Sure Start initiative for young children and families in the area

• work with our partners in other statutory, voluntary, community and private organisations to help ensure their efforts are well co-ordinated and focused on the real needs of the area.

We are determined to be fully accountable to the people of Gladstone – directly and through our partner organisations.

If you would like to know more about our project activities and facilities we offer for community use please get in touch.
