By communities, for communities.

What is LocalMotion?

LocalMotion is building a social, economic and environmental justice movement, by communities, for communities.

Our movement seeks to understand local strengths in the places where we live and work. We aim to challenge typical power structures and hierarchies that become barriers to a community’s progress and hold us back.

Watch our film The LocalMotion Story to learn more.

The Movement

LocalMotion was created in response to funding squeezes and the increasing demand on charities and local grassroots organisations to plug the gap; people and communities who traditionally have little power, minimal resources and are often working in silo from one another.
