Supporting people and building community

Skills, jobs and confidence

Through Wybourn Works, customers have received personalised support with training, volunteering, and employment. This support focuses on building confidence as well as practical skills.

The Pat Midgley Community Hub remains a welcoming space for activities, advice, and support. We’re also helping the Hub move towards becoming a customer‑led charity to help secure its future.

Young people

You told us young people need more positive things to do locally.

Working with Always An Alternative, we've delivered sessions shaped by young people themselves - including sports, music, arts and hands‑on activities. Families have told us this has helped improve confidence and engagement.

Working together

More local support is now available through partnerships - from wellbeing sessions to skills support and English classes. Customer feedback continues to guide improvements across Wybourn and Great Places as a whole.
