"I was struck by the sheer commitment of the staff and volunteers at Cutteslowe and the fact that despite fairly modest resources, they were tackling head-on the most profound needs on their estate. It was clear to me that as well as having services of the highest standard, Cutteslowe are great innovators and their Trustees were still full of great ideas to bring the whole community together". Community Matters Chief Executive, David Tyler, who was an observer for part of the assessment. |
