what we do
We find that poverty so often poses as a barrier to inclusion and progression. Working at grass roots level in the Cornish communities where help is most needed; we aim to take down these barriers providing opportunities for all and inclusion for everyone no matter your background or circumstance.
Having grown up in Cornwall ourselves we are passionate about the betterment of our communities and Cultivate Cornwall CIC was set up with the intention of strengthening the community, increasing employable skills and increased mobility opportunities. Some of the ways we achieve this include holding events that bring communities together, hosting support and training sessions tailored to all ages and abilities and enabling travel through Europe with Erasmus+ as both hosts and participants on education programs.
We understand the broadness of these objectives however, Cultivate Cornwall was set up as part of a long term strategy and our intentions are that it will continue to operate long into the future whilst having a greater and more positive impact year on year.
