•    Focus on connecting with a diverse range communities which are currently detached, for a variety of reasons, from walking or cycling in London.


Groundwork London is happy to discuss the eligibility of your organisation or proposed project, and to help you ensure you meet the criteria set out above. For advice and guidance please contact us on wcgl@groundwork.org.uk. or 0207 239 1286
