We are looking for community projects based in Darlington, large and small that could use some help for one day from one of our team of volunteers.

A Community Partnership is a group of likeminded people who live or work in Darlington’s priority wards. There are eleven Community Partnerships in Darlington.
 
The main aim of a Community Partnership is to improve the quality of life for the residents of the area it represents.

Members meet regularly, consider all aspects of community life and seek ways, in partnership with others, to identify what needs to be improved.

They then consider how this can be done and work towards getting it done.

You can read more about the different Community Partnerships, what they are doing at the moment and how to become involved - on our Connecting with Communities website.
