The Community Council of Devon  (CCD) is an independent charitable company founded in 1961.   Its 800 members includes the principal statutory bodies and voluntary organisations in the county, and many other local organisations.

We have a voluntary governing body, our Board of Trustees in part elected by our full members at general meetings and in part appointed by bodies as designated in our company articles.  CCD incorporated as a Company Limited by Guarantee in 1999

What We Do

The Community Council of Devon is the Rural Community Council for Devon. Our main areas of work are covered by the following themes: community structure, community planning and community regeneration, with two cross-cutting themes: social inclusion and influencing.

Our vision is of active rural communities shaping their own futures with improved opportunity and quality of life for all.  Our mission is that we strive to make this happen through our direct work with communities, our local knowledge, networks, professional services, and our influencing role.

CCD attaches great importance to its independent existence as a non-political countywide voluntary body.
