Hangleton and Knoll Community Project

We are a Community Development charity based in the Hangleton and Knoll ward of Brighton and Hove in South East England. A part of the community since 1983 we are a project working for the community with the community and managed by the community.

Right from the start local residents have shaped and developed the Hangleton and Knoll Project (HKP) to become what it is today; a model of good practice for how a community is able to develop and manage its own resources.

The Hangleton and Knoll Project exists to work in partnerships with residents to access and develop opportunities and resources and to facilitate positive change as identified by the residents of our communities.

• To assist and support existing community groups and to work with local residents to set up new groups as they are required by the community.
• To act as a facilitator for external services wishing to provide services to the community residents
• To promote and support the development of community buildings, parks and open spaces.
• To encourage the participation of local residents in all forms of voluntary activity, education and employment which may improve the quality of life in Hangleton and Knoll.
