Devastating for them
For many people, the coronavirus pandemic and forced closure of shops and industries saw people lost their jobs and livelihoods.
Coupled with her husband having an accident around the same time, Selina, from Blackburn, fell on hard times and had to turn to her local community of Shadsworth with Whitebirk for support. It was then that she found the Big Local and the team behind it that she could support her own family.Selina told LancsLive: "My situation changed through Covid and I sought help from the community. I live on the Whitebirk estate and heard about the Big Local.
What is Big Local? Providing at least £1m to each of 150 communities in England, Big Local is funded by The National Lottery Community Fund and managed by Local Trust. Nationally it works with a range of partners to deliver Big Local, building on the skills and experiences of others to provide expert advice and support for residents.
