Cardiff University’s Community Gateway is a flagship engagement project. We aim to develop long-term, equal and mutually beneficial partnerships with Grangetown residents and those organisations which serve them. In particular we aim to:
Invest in nine social, environmental or economic themes chosen by the communities of Grangetown.
Provide easy access for Grangetown communities and members of Cardiff University to work together.
Increase awareness of the skills and resources available at Cardiff University for the communities of Grangetown.
Engage with Grangetown residents to identify high-impact and world-class, research, teaching and volunteering opportunities for Cardiff University which meet local needs and help make Grangetown an even better place to live.
We also hope to develop a physical base in Grangetown which will bring the University to the community.
Our principles:
long term partnerships;
community-led initiatives;
building support for existing services/projects;
combined community and University expertise or resources;
positive and practical results at a variety of levels.
