Our story so far…

HISTORY & ETHOS

In 2019, John founded Alexander Community Development (ACD). John quickly brought Kara into the fold and soon enough ‘ACD’ was launched. Growing rapidly to a team of 15, with a mixture of staff and volunteers. ACD is built on a passion to give back to the city of Dundee. Our Transition to Work programmes aim to give people the opportunities to learn trades in a safe live environment, while working with their schools.  Our Community Support programme works with food banks and charities to help distribute food and key items to Dundee’s most vulnerable. Finally,  Trades for All is our asset-locked construction service, which carries out a variety of building projects for the public, private and 3rd sector.

SPONSOR, VOLUNTEER, GET INVOLVED!

We are a community organisation and seek to partner with progressive businesses who wish to develop skills in their workforce and the wider community. Our training is delivered by highly skilled tradesmen and sector specific experts and teachers. We are always looking to offer volunteering opportunities to retired tradesmen and those who are looking to give back.
