Ham and North Kingston Community Investors (CIC)
The CIC has the aim to carry out activities which benefits the community. In particular to support, enhance and improve retail and community facilities in the Ham and North Kingston area; provide the residents with the opportunity to invest in their own retail and community facilities and provide opportunities to participate fully in the life of their community in ways which promote community integration; address and alleviate social and economic disadvantage. It also aims to promote general charitable purposes, activities, events and projects which may be decided from time to time for the benefit of the community.
An important focus of CIC's activities is the Ham Parade Market.
