Communities might not be something you can quantify or easily define, but they lie at the heart of where we live.

A huge range of grassroots projects have emerged around the world to empower local people and build communities, from the UK’s community-owned cinemas and urban orchards to social enterprises in Athens and borrowing shops in Berlin.

Now we want to hear about your local spaces. Whether it’s a co-operative bakery just up the road, a food-growing project you take your family to at weekends or a mini book library you walk past every morning on your way to work, share your photos of those local gems close to your heart.
