Community Spotlight | Digicomm 360
At Digicomm 360, April is all about shining a light on the people and organisations making a real difference in our community.
For our first Community Spotlight, we’re proud to feature Bolton Together – a partnership of local organisations working together to support residents across Bolton.
Watch the Interview
We sat down with Louise McDade (CEO) and Katrina Fletcher (Programme Manager) from Bolton Together to learn more about the incredible work they do and the impact they’re having every day.
Who Are Bolton Together?
Bolton Together is a partnership of charities, social enterprises and community groups, working collaboratively to improve the lives of people across the Bolton area.
Rather than operating as a single organisation delivering one service, Bolton Together brings together a network of trusted local providers, creating a more joined-up, accessible support system for the community.
Their focus is simple but powerful:
helping people live healthier, happier and more independent lives.
What Do They Do?
Bolton Together supports individuals and families through a wide range of services, including:
- Health and wellbeing support
- Mental health and emotional wellbeing services
- Support for vulnerable adults and families
- Community-based initiatives to reduce isolation
- Help accessing local services and resources
By working in partnership, they ensure people get the right support at the right time without falling through the gaps.
Why Their Work Matters
In every community, there are people who need extra support, whether that’s due to health challenges, financial pressures, loneliness, or life changes.
What makes Bolton Together so impactful is their collaborative approach.
Instead of navigating multiple organisations alone, individuals can access a more connected support network, designed around real needs and real lives.
This means:
- Faster access to help
- More personalised support
- Stronger community connections
- Better long-term outcomes
A Community-First Approach
Everything Bolton Together does is rooted in the local community.
They understand Bolton because they are Bolton, working with local people, local organisations, and local knowledge to create meaningful, lasting change.
Their approach isn’t just about services, it’s about people, relationships, and community strength.
