Connecting Communities in Berkshire

CCB – helping Berkshire communities thrive

Connecting Communities in Berkshire (CCB) is a charity working across the whole of Berkshire supporting communities to thrive through advice, training and community-led action.

Our vision is for all communities in Berkshire to be sustainable, inclusive, and able to take control of their own futures.

Through our projects and services, we provide advice, support, and training that:

Reduces poverty and rural disadvantage
Improves health and wellbeing
Increases inclusion and social connectedness

We recognise that disadvantage is about more than income alone. Access to services, affordable housing, employment opportunities, transport, and social connections all play an important role in people’s quality of life. Our work focuses on inspiring and supporting community-led action that helps people and places thrive.

We take an asset-based approach, helping communities identify and build on the strengths, skills, knowledge, and resources they already possess. By supporting local community infrastructure and leadership, we help communities develop the capacity to address challenges and create lasting positive change.

As a membership organisation, our members are at the heart of everything we do. They help shape our priorities, guide our governance, and ensure that the voices of Berkshire’s communities are heard. Their insight and experience enable us to remain closely connected to the needs and aspirations of local people.
