Communities Together is a five year project funded by the Big Lottery Fund.

The aim of the project is to provide support and training to small groups, village halls and community buildings throughout Lincolnshire, and to help both new and existing community groups to develop.

There are five partners, whose organisations are able to provide a variety of specialist advice, training and support, they are; Community Lincs, Age Concern, Children’s Links, Lincolnshire Council for Voluntary Youth Services (LCVYS) and  Groundwork Lincolnshire.
