who are we?

We work with communities to make places better.

Our team of facilitators, environmental artists, designers, engagement specialists, developers and strategic thinkers have over a decade’s experience working alongside local people to deliver reactive solutions that boost regeneration, enterprise, community involvement and collaboration, communication, youth engagement, active travel, funding potential and digital participation.

design by community

Here at icecream we believe the best solutions are designed by the people, for the people, because nobody knows what your needs are better than you. That’s why we work together with communities to empower them to design their own solutions, or as we call it, design by community.

We have over a decade of experience in working collaboratively with communities. Our varied team of specialists includes designers, artists, facilitators, planners and programmers, all of whom work together to make the process of participating in local projects more engaging, transparent and accessible.
