Welcome to Leicestershire Communities
The Leicestershire Communities website provides information, support and advice to help us work together to create strong, resilient, happy and healthy communities within Leicestershire. This includes residents who live and work in Leicestershire, as well as community and voluntary groups who provide services for people in Leicestershire.
It is a resource which provides a range of useful information to help local people to actively participate in their communities. We have recently refreshed how we work with the communities of Leicestershire which is set out in our Communities Approach.
If you would like to get involved, find out more about our projects and programmes or sign up to our Communities Network, please click on the themes below.
