Our Story

Peterborough Together Project was founded with a simple idea: stronger communities are built when people work together. We saw incredible organisations, volunteers and community groups making a difference every day, often working separately despite sharing the same goal. Peterborough Together Project was created to connect people, encourage collaboration and turn ideas into action. We don't replace existing organisations—we bring them together, creating opportunities to share skills, resources and knowledge. Every project, partnership and conversation helps build a more connected, inclusive and resilient Peterborough where everyone has the opportunity to belong, contribute and thrive.

Our Mission

Our mission is to strengthen communities across Peterborough by bringing together people, community groups, charities and organisations to collaborate, share ideas and create meaningful opportunities. Through creativity, wellbeing, volunteering, culture, environmental projects and community-led initiatives, we aim to reduce isolation, encourage inclusion and inspire positive change. By supporting collaboration rather than competition, we help communities build on their existing strengths and create lasting impact that benefits people of all ages and backgrounds.

Our Vision

We envision a Peterborough where communities are connected, inclusive and empowered to shape their own future. A city where organisations work together, volunteers feel valued, creativity and culture are accessible to everyone, and every resident has opportunities to participate, contribute and thrive. We want collaboration to become the norm, creating stronger neighbourhoods, healthier communities and lasting partnerships that improve lives for generations to come.

Our Values

Everything we do is guided by our core values: Kindness, Collaboration, Integrity, Inclusion, Creativity, Respect and Community. We believe everyone has something valuable to contribute and that lasting change happens when people work together with trust and respect. We celebrate diversity, encourage new ideas and create welcoming spaces where everyone feels they belong. Our values shape every decision, partnership and project, ensuring Peterborough Together Project remains community-led, transparent and focused on making a positive difference.
