About

Welcome to the Bluebell Community Development Project (C.D.P.).

Our mission is to act as a catalyst for social change, based on the identified needs of the Bluebell Community, with an anti-poverty and social-inclusion focus. 

Bluebell C.D.P. is a non-profit organisation. We are currently in the process of applying for charitable status.
