Community Action Groups

If it’s inspiration you’re after, this is a great place to start.

As a newly formed CAG network, we already have a number of inspirational groups in the CAG Somerset network. We are eager to help more community groups so please get in touch if you would like to join!

The groups in the CAG Somerset network are organising an impressive range of community activities and events. If you would like to get involved, you can explore group profiles below to better understand their work, aims and volunteering opportunities. Through community action, our network is making a significant impact on reducing waste in Somerset.
