Abbey Access Training awarded Government Community Renewal Fund

Eight Lincoln charities celebrate after receiving £701,427 from the Government Community Renewal Fund to deliver locally-led, innovative projects that will help breathe new life into the City of Lincoln.

Eight Lincoln charities (Abbey Access Training, developmentplus, Green Synergy, Lincoln City Foundation, LEAP Housing, YMCA Lincolnshire, The Bridge Church and The Network) are celebrating a successful funding application from the UK Community Renewal Fund which will deliver a wide range of innovative projects across the City of Lincoln.

The eight Lincoln charities, already aligned strategically and working in partnership, have come together to utilise their local insight and knowledge to pilot projects that will impact on local growth, strategic priorities and community renewal.

These pilot projects will springboard future activities for the forthcoming UK Shared Prosperity fund.

Community Project Mentors will be active in the local area, knocking on doors to inform local residents of the extensive offer of support; signposting to support; community activities and groups; short courses; six-month skills training programmes; Traineeship programmes; ESOL classes and much more.
