Cheltenham Connect is an initiative run by local volunteers which has been working to create a stronger community, a more resilient local economy and a better local environment in South Cheltenham. It is a shining example of people power, at a time when the value and importance of local community is now being acknowledged worldwide. It is an active supporter of the Cheltenham Zero initiative.

Unfortunately, during 2020 and 2021, many of our regular events were cancelled due to COVID, but you can keep up with our other activities by signing up to our Newsletter page. Our business networking events are still running virtually - details here. For most of lockdown we ran a very successful Weekly Mailer, but we have now returned to our normal monthly updates.
Our main activities:
- organising community events which enable people to get to know one another and have fun, from quizzes to Christmas activities
- organising events to support local businesses, including Laptop Friday co-working and the annual trade show Connect Business
- setting up and supporting projects to improve the area for the benefit of everyone who lives, works, shops and spends time there
- carrying out research into the history of the area.
