Suffolk ACRE

Suffolk ACRE (Action with Communities in Rural England) was established in 1937 to work with communities in Suffolk. It incorporated as a charitable company limited by guarantee in 1997.

Its mission is to tackle the economic, social and environmental needs of communities in Suffolk by forging effective partnerships between communities and agencies. Suffolk ACRE aims to support communities to identify and tackle their needs through community action and enable them to take ownership of their own well-being.  

Suffolk ACRE is part of a network of 38 Rural Community Councils across England, the Rural Community Action Network, and is a member of ACRE (the national umbrella for RCCs) and RAE (Rural Action East).

Suffolk ACRE is accredited to Level 3 of the ACRE Standards, which are endorsed by the Charity Commission.
