About us

CAN exists to benefit and help sustain rural communities in Northumberland by: • Promoting Rural Issues – Providing and supporting a ‘rural voice’ to influence policy, programmes and action. • Empowering Communities – Supporting and developing local communities, their key groups and organisations. • Delivering solutions – Identifying, developing and managing projects to address the needs of individuals. • Addressing climate change – delivering projects and influencing behaviours to help meet climate action requirements. We support the sustainability and development of village halls across Northumberland as core centres for local activities and service provision, we deliver a range of projects targeting entrenched fuel poverty and we support local residents and community organisations to become fuel efficient and move towards net zero. We support rural residents into work and training and we facilitate local groups and organisations to deliver sustainable community-led housing development. We work in close partnership with local organisations including Parish and Town Councils to deliver solutions to the issues created by living and working in a remote rural location and we are a member of the national rural network – Action with Communities in Rural England (ACRE).
