Project Description
A collaboration of businesses supporting local projects
Funding grassroots projects around Regent’s Place to make a real difference
The Regent’s Place Community Fund is an exciting and unique business-led initiative, in which businesses at Regent’s Place have come together to support local grassroot charities and make a real difference to our local area. The Fund focuses on projects that support social cohesion in the community, skills and access to employment, and healthy living.
Semble has been co-delivering the Regent’s Place Community Fund from its third year.
