Thanks to National Lottery players, Action Together has received life-changing funding from The National Lottery Community Fund. £50,000 will be invested into each six neighbourhoods across Oldham, Rochdale and Tameside to support local people to design and lead participatory grant making, ensuring communities decide how funding is used to improve health, wellbeing and local connection. This will help grassroots groups have fairer access to funding, alongside practical support and learning that strengthens community capacity and long-term impact.

We want to ensure residents, as well as VCFSE organisations, have their voice heard at this event. Please share this invitation with any of your members/service users, other residents, or people who work in Rochdale North.
