Project Harmony

Building understanding, confidence and connection across communities.

Project Harmony supports disadvantaged communities in Leicester by creating stronger links between local people, support services and the wider public.

The project is designed to build bridges of understanding, improve access to information and help people feel more confident seeking support when they need it.

It focuses on reducing barriers, promoting inclusion and making sure people have the knowledge and confidence to access services that can improve their wellbeing and quality of life.
