Here you'll hear what's been happening, what's happening
now and what's 'Blowin' in the Wind,. Certainly,
'The Times They Are A-changin'and we need to adapt to
meet new challenges and find advantages going fomard,
LTI continueyo.￿rOw. The number of young people we support hos risen by 70% in
the last yeo
d their voice is being increasingly heard. The number of Travellers
on the Board
Tnjstees has grown to 66% and they ore behind the decisions and
the direction in which LTI is moving.
Our partnerships are odding yet greater value to what we offer. We have new
young blood in our teaching team. The old ore learning from the young and vice
verso. In the midst of all this change our overriding aims remain the same- to
empower and build confidence in the individuals
and families that use our services
and to promote community cohesion by
providlng educational, employment and
personal development opportunities
and reducing health inequalities
for the Traveller communities of Lincolnshire.
Of course, as always, we thank the

Every working day consists of some kind of advocacy support. This includes
supporting families with online universal credit, completing passport forms
and driving licence applications, downloading and navigating apps such as
the NHS app, reading letters and completing forms and managing utility
bills,
While we are supporting people with advocacy, we ensure we build their
confidence and support them with knowledge and understanding. This
improves motivation and reduces anxSety.
ADULLir IrlR/AIIIIYKIIIINNIG
We give everyone the opportunity to access careers advice and guidance. We
offer access to training from a wide range of external sources in order to meet

It is such a pleasure attendlng the
fortnightly Well Woman Group. All the
members of the group come from one site.
This site has gone through trauma and
difficult times, so our focus has been to
listen and to support. During the past year
they have had access to counsellors as well
as visits from the physical health care team.
They have begun their functional skills
maths and en8lish and have enjoyed
participatin8 in creative
actlvitles such as crocheting.
The group have also taken part in a Water
Challenge. This involved drlnking at least 2
litres of water everyday.
"The key ingredlent of the groups is friendship."
