Cheshire

The Cheshire and Warrington ChangeUp Consortium (CUCW) was  initially set up in 2004/05. The vision of the consortium is for a Cheshire and Warrington voluntary and community sector that is sustainable and flourishing, that will deliver quality services to communities of interest at the point of need.

The mission of the consortium is to develop infrastructure services which are visionary, responsive and accountable providing sustainable quality support fully accessible across the sub-region.

The consortium is funded by Capacitybuilders and consists of 17 infrastructure organizations, with Cheshire Community Action being the lead and accountable body. Cheshire Community Action is a local charity committed to providing advice and support for projects designed to protect and enhance the rural -and increasingly the urban- communities of Cheshire.
