At Communities 1st, we are committed to amplifying the collective voice of our members and shaping policies that reflect our shared values and vision. Our recent 'What We Stand For' policy development initiative takes a significant step forward in this journey, enriched by the diverse contributions of our member organisations, which has culminated in the drafting of pivotal policy statements across seven critical areas.
