  • Become a Neighbourhood Champion – Your Voice. Your Community. Your Change.

    Are you passionate about where you live? Do you want to help shape and improve your neighbourhood?

    We’re looking for local residents to step into a brand-new role as Neighbourhood Champions in the communities of LHP. This is your chance to make a real difference – to be the voice of your neighbourhood and help create positive change.

    As a Neighbourhood Champion, you’ll work with us to understand the issues that matter most to you and your neighbours. You’ll help guide local projects, share ideas, and shape this role into something that truly reflects what you believe your community needs.

    This role is still developing, and we want it to grow based on your interests, insights, and passion. Whether you're full of ideas or just want to get more involved – we want to hear from you!

    We’ll be hosting events in Grimsby and Boston where you can learn more about the Neighbourhood Champion role, share your views, and find out how to get involved.

    📣 Your voice. Your community. Your change. Help us make it happen.

    Interested? Get in touch with us today to find out more and be part of something that really matters.

  • Stop Food Waste Day – Free Cookbook Available!

    Next Wednesday (30 April 2025) marks Stop Food Waste Day, a great reminder to think about how we can reduce waste in our kitchens and make the most of what we have.

    To support this, there’s a free cookbook available that’s full of brilliant recipes designed to give a second life to commonly wasted ingredients like stale bread, bruised fruit and veg, and even discarded peels.

    I thought I was doing well with food waste at home, but this book introduced me to some fantastic new ideas!
