Increased demand for services in winter exerts severe pressure on local community, voluntary, faith and social enterprise organisations. Action Together helps strengthen local non-profit organisations, to enable them to support local people, by driving support for winter initiatives from the Tameside Christmas Toy Appeal to volunteering for local organisations.
What is a Young People in the Lead team?
At The National Lottery Community Fund, we have big plans for 2020 as we work to make sure that young people’s voices are included in all our work, whether it’s through the grants we make, the people we influence or the things we learn.
Greater Manchester is a place where everyone should feel safe to be themselves. No one should face violence, abuse or hatred just because of who they are, who they love, where they’re from, what they look like or what they believe. Hate incidents and hate crime will not be tolerated in Greater Manchester.
There is a lot of great work taking place to tackle hate crime in each area of Greater Manchester but we think we can be more effective if we work together. So, we are creating the Greater Manchester Hate Crime Plan to help prevent and tackle hate crime.
