## WELCOME TO THE ONLINE SITE FOR SOUTH TOGETHER
**South Together is a partnership between residents and support organisations working across the whole of South Ward** (Nunsthorpe, Grange, Bradley Park). Otherwise known as **the South Ward Forum**.
South Together holds monthly face-to-face meetings bringing partners and residents together to discuss issues that matter to the area.
_(Currently meetings are monthly at Grimsby Baptist Church, 6.30pm on the 3rd Wednesday of each month)_
Whether or not you can attend meetings, we share all the information discussed at the meetings online on this site. Use the site to catch up on what we’re sharing.
And please join in the discussions. Register for an account and start commenting on anything here or posting your own questions or statements.
This site is all about making South Ward a better place to live and work. We’re not interested in business or service promotions. It’s not here to air grievances in public. We’re all looking at ways to improve the area, so please post positive activities, events or messages.

## INFORMATION
There’s [a general information guide we keep up to date here](https://www.nelwatch.org.uk/southwardforum/index.php?r=wiki%2Fpage&cguid=eeac04d0-65c9-4d4f-8ef2-8cee2c763a0f). It includes details of issues raised through the Forum but also general information of use locally.
## RULES OF USE
The discussions on this site should be for the positive benefit of everyone. Whilst much of the site is public so that the community can find out information, registration on the site is required before commenting or adding content. We hope this will keep the site of value to the residents of South Ward and those supporting the community. But we need to ensure everyone benefits, so…
Be kind and respectful to all members.\
Over 18's only\
No Bullying or Hate Speech\
No Promotions Or Spam\
Respect everyone's privacy\
Give more than you take. No self-promotion. Work for everyone
Don’t expect to report crimes or issues on the website and have them followed up on. 999 and 101 should be used for reporting crime. Other services such as via NELincs Council should be used for reporting appropriate issues. Of course share your issues and concerns and we’ll watch for trends and see how partners and agencies can help, but please use appropriate reporting methods.
I’m sure we’ll evolve these rules over time, but we’ll have a low tolerance and block/remove members who do not follow the rules.
Let’s all support each other to support South Ward.
