Community Programmes
The community pillar of Shaping Portsmouth is focused on supporting the people that live, work and study in the city.
We are uniquely positioned to focus our energy on emerging areas of concern, whilst providing three key programmes that showcase the best of what Portsmouth has to offer.
Through the resources of our Patrons and Partners, and the willingness of our volunteers, we aim to give every Portsmouth resident the chance to give back to the city that they call home.
