What We Do
About Us
Cliftonville Community Regeneration Forum is a grassroots community organisation which works mainly in the Waterworks local council ward. The Waterworks ward is the No.1 most deprived ward in the North of Ireland – out of 462 wards. Child poverty is running at 57% – that means two out of every three children in the area live in poverty.
There is a low level of educational qualifications and skills. 53% of the population have low or no qualifications. The percentage of the working age population out of work or economically inactive is almost 60%. The Cliftonville community is an interface community and the existing peace wall runs from Cliftonpark Avenue across Manor Street and up to Rosapenna Street and the Oldpark Road.

Our Mission
Our Outcomes
Cliftonville Community Regeneration Forum works towards three key Outcomes:
1. Regeneration: We want our people have decent jobs, wages and a good standard of living
2. Peace Building and Good Relations: We want a community that is peaceful, shared and diverse
3. Children and Young People: We want our children and young people have the best start in life
These Outcomes are inter-related and central to our work. All projects must work towards the achievements of these outcomes. Cliftonville Community Regeneration Forum uses Outcomes Based Accountability (OBA) tools to track the difference we are making within our community.
All projects answer three key questions:
How much did we do?
How well did we do it?
Is anyone better off?
