How to get in touch with our team.
Each year Groundwork Hertfordshire makes an incredible impact on the ground.
Our local programmes and services are tailored to the needs of partners and communities in that locality. When all that local activity is added together, it becomes a major national force for change.
We worked on 147 individual projects in 2010/2011 – focusing on disadvantaged communities. We demonstrate the qualitative impact of our projects through sophisticated monitoring and evaluation techniques. We measure the physical changes to the environment and the changes in local people’s behaviour, attitudes and actions through pre- and post-project questionnaires.
