LymeForward helps Lyme Regis and area to benefit from grants and other sources of outside funding, either by applying directly or by identifying possible funds and then assisting other organisations with their applications.

Much of the current work is being done through the Coastal Community Team, a partnership created by LymeForward to enable the area to bid for significant government funds being offered to collaborating coastal communities for economic development.
