community groups

Has your organisation thought about supporting a project? It can be great fun and highly rewarding.

In return, we can help by providing fundraising materials and building links between you and your chosen project, giving you regular reports and updates on how your money is helping.

Penarth Progressio Supporters Group
Under the guidance of Philip Kingston, the Penarth Progressio Supporters Group has been raising funds for us since 1991. They do this by involving their local community: every year they join the gardeners from local allotments and hold a coffee morning and produce sale. This raises valuable funds for our development workers.

Over the years the Penarth Support Group has had involvement with projects in Honduras and Peru and currently they are supporting our development worker with the Batsirai project in Zimbabwe. This involvement has allowed the group to build a relationship with the development workers and their projects.

For several years now Penarth Progressio Supporters Group has followed the development of the Batsirai project in Zimbabwe, sending regular financial support to them via Progressio.

Community group support is a rewarding way of offering assistance to those who need it most.

If you would like to discuss ideas on how your group could support a project or our work in general our Supporter Development Officer would be delighted to hear from you. Please contact:
