About Cultural Educational Association CIC
community.group is operated by the Cultural Educational Association CIC — a UK Community Interest Company formed in June 2023. The CEA is dedicated to enriching learning experiences through the inclusion and understanding of diverse global cultures, with a focus on individuals who have limited access to cultural education.
As a CIC, we are regulated by the CIC Regulator at Companies House. Our assets and profits are locked for community benefit — we reinvest into educational offerings and community-based events, not private profit.
