Foothold is a dynamic organisation, with a dynamic team, working to deliver lasting social, economic and environmental change.
           
We recycle furniture, support community initiatives, turn rubbish dumps into playground facilities and help people start up new businesses, to name just a few things we do. As diverse as these activities all seem, they are bound together by a common Foothold objective; improving quality of life.
