Better Together project is grant funded by the National Lottery Community Fund, in partnership with Abbey Access Training and Development Plus.
The Better Together project brings together three Lincoln charities: developmentplus, Abbey Access Training and Green Synergy.
Green Synergy delivers 2 weekly sessions on Hillside Garden offering a range of activities for people including horticulture, crafts, and fire pit cooking. Other partners offer different learning and wellbeing opportunities. All partners offer skilled mentoring.
Better Together will support and enable people who are experiencing mental health conditions to come together to improve their personal health and well-being.
It will provide mentoring, therapy and training opportunities as the first steps towards overcoming barriers and moving forward in their lives gaining the skills and confidence to reach their full potential.
Participants are offered a tailor made, supportive and flexible programme of mentoring, coaching, therapeutic activities, volunteering, training, work experience and support into employability.
The programme is funded by the National Lottery Community Fund and is free to adults over 18 and living in Lincoln.
