Community involvement

 

There’s lots of fun or worthwhile activities taking place in RCT. You can connect with your community as a participant, or start an activity through the options below.

Connect RCT is a local community website filled with:

  • events and activities
  • useful facilities and services 
  • volunteering opportunities

It’s also a place where you can get involved with local causes. There are challenges and polls where you can contribute your views on what should happen locally too. Also, show other people your value in the community by earning badges.

Whether you’re an individual or representing a group, create a profile on Connect RCT today.

You can get support to join a community or hobby group from one of our wellbeing coordinators. Being involved and connected to people in your community can be a major source of wellbeing, and reduce feelings of loneliness or isolation. See our support and wellbeing page for all the options available.

Volunteers are a valuable presence in many communities. They make a difference in places like sports clubs, libraries, schools and hospitals. Find out how you can volunteer on our volunteering page, and Connect RCT has volunteering opportunities too.

If you have an idea for a community group, it can be informal and small, and stay that way or grow over time. Whatever you’re planning, all the information you need to start up is on our page for setting up and running your group or organisation.
