banded together
Formed a group
To band together is to unite for a common purpose, typically in response to a threat or shared challenge.
The phrase implies collective action among people who might not otherwise associate: The neighbors banded together to oppose the development.
It suggests strength through solidarity—individuals forming a group to accomplish what none could alone.
