Fylde Council’s Communities Team is seeking Expressions of Interest from local providers who want to work in partnership to bring the hubs to life.

The project is being funded through the government-backed Crisis and Resilience Fund.

The hubs are designed to act as welcoming, coordinated spaces where residents can access a range of support services under one roof.

What are Resilience Hubs?

Resilience Hubs will bring together services focused on wellbeing, early intervention, crisis recovery and long-term resilience.

Fylde Council says the aim is to provide support that is accessible, preventative and flexible to the needs of local people.

The council is particularly interested in hearing from organisations that can offer trauma-informed and inclusive services.

These could include one-to-one support, group activities, creative programmes and therapeutic sessions.

Who can apply?

Applications are welcomed from voluntary, community and faith sector organisations, social enterprises and charities with relevant experience.

The council says it wants to work with local providers already making a difference across Fylde.

Councillor Chris Dixon, Lead Member for Social Wellbeing, said: “These hubs are about more than crisis response – they’re about building stronger, more resilient communities for the long term.

“We want to work with the brilliant organisations already making a difference across Fylde, and we’d love to hear from anyone who shares our passion for helping people thrive.”
