For twenty years we’ve been here for people in need, in and around the Thirsk area. Today our mission is still the same, but we’ve developed our services to continue to care for those around us, as their needs and circumstances change. With your help we’ll continue to do this for many years to come.

Our values
As we continue our work with those in need, Our vision is that local communities in North Yorkshire, particularly around Thirsk, will become stronger and more resilient and those communities feel that they belong, are connected and live independent, active and fulfilled lives.
How we try to work
Every day at Community Works, whether it’s in our Re:use store, at our front reception desk or even gathered around the kettle having a well earned break, we try and live out our work with five values that we hope will also affect our behaviours.
- Integrity – We try to be honest, open and transparent
- Involving others – We work hard to involve our service users & volunteers in shaping our work and our future
- Quality – We try and do the best we can in all of our work
- Community – We’re always listening to those around us and we work with others whenever we can
- Valuing others – We see the unique value in everyone and don’t give up easily
