Community Action Programme

The Community Action Programme provides development support to local community groups to enable them to build capacity and deliver services at a local level. It will also provide a range of activities to support community participation in Renfrewshire's Community Planning Process.

The programme offers:

Community Training

  • A programme of accredited and non-accredited bespoke courses developed as a result of individual training needs analysis carried out with community group members.
  • Community groups are supported to access external funding opportunities

Local Area Committees

  • Support to the newly-established LACs, encouraging community participation in the community planning process, assisting community groups' applications to decentralised LAC funding streams and act as a first point of contact providing one to one support to community representatives, councillors and statutory bodies.

Information Sessions

  • Support and advice sessions with community groups to increase their knowledge and awareness under the headings of Capacity Building, the Funding Toolkit and Community Planning structures.

Community Events

  • Support the delivery of community-led events across Renfrewshire.
