Our Partners
We are pleased to be working alongside other local charities to support community and voluntary action.
The Trust for Developing Communities
TDC leads the Thriving Communities Partnership which strives to increase inclusion for all our city’s communities. Everyone should feel they belong where they live, and everyone has something to contribute to our city.
TDC works with community groups and organisations in neighbourhoods in the top 20% on index of multiple deprivation. You can see where they are based here Map

They also support services through:
- area-based network meetings: Area Networking
- health forums where health and care services connect with communities Health Forums
Bridging Change
Bridging Change aims to create a more equal and diverse society with positive outcomes for Black and minoritised ethnic people. We do this through the building of strong alliances, connections and networks.
They are driven by the belief that Black, Asian and minoritised ethnic organisations, groups, communities and individuals are strongest when they work together to challenge systemic barriers. Bridging Change wants to see a society where all individuals and communities have equal opportunities and feel valued and a sense of belonging in their locality.
Current projects include:
- help for older people to access support
- improve understanding of the connection between racial and environmental inequality
- support mental health and wellbeing
- amplify community voices to influence NHS and council services

Working to Connect
WTC supports smaller LGBTQIA+ community groups which are run ‘by and for’ particular communities with shared interest and identities.
Their main focus is to strengthen their member groups’ visibility and amplify their collective voice.
Member groups bring together people with a shared identity for peer support, socialising, activism and leisure activities such as a choir or sport.
