Principal activities of the company

For the year ended 23-24 As the director of Iconic NW CIC, i am pleased to provide this report outlining the key activities and achievements of the company during the year. Our mission has remained focused on empowering individuals, fostering community spirit, and providing practical support across various sectors. Throughout 2023-24, we have continued to work with partners, funders, and the local community to make a positive and lasting impact. HAF Project (Holiday Activities and Food) In collaboration with Liverpool City Council, we have actively participated in the HAF project, designed to support children during school holidays. This initiative has provided educational activities and access to healthy meals for children, helping to alleviate holiday hunger and providing opportunities for personal development. Through our involvement, we have delivered both educational and nutritional support to children in need, ensuring their well-being during the school breaks. Sew Skilful Programme with The National Lottery, our Sew Skilful programme, supported by The National Lottery, has focused on upskilling individuals in the areas of employability, confidence, and self-esteem. The programme has provided participants with practical skills through sustainable upcycling projects. Beyond skills development, it has served as a tool to strengthen community cohesion, with individuals from various backgrounds coming together to engage in creative, hands-on projects. This initiative has not only contributed to personal growth but also played a role in improving employment prospects for many participants. Postcode Lottery Mental Health Workshops for the LGBTQ+ Community, we have continued our partnership with the Postcode Lottery by delivering mental health workshops targeted at the LGBTQ+ community. These workshops, which incorporated makeup artistry and photography shoots, allowed participants to express themselves creatively while also building confidence, teamwork, and mental resilience. The workshops have provided a safe and inclusive environment for individuals to address mental health challenges and connect with others in the community. Feeding Britain was Performance Arts, Dance, and Healthy Meals In collaboration with Feeding Britain, we have delivered a series of performance arts and dance workshops for children, alongside the provision of healthy meals. This dual approach combined creative outlets with essential nutritional support, helping children to develop both artistically and physically. Through this partnership, we have ensured that children had access to both nourishment and creative expression, promoting their overall development and well-being. The Festival of Fashion was a significant event this year, bringing together over 400 participants and 50 organisations for a three-day celebration of fashion, creativity, and community. This large-scale event showcased the talents of local individuals and organisations, fostering a sense of unity within the community. The Festival was a resounding success, emphasising the importance of collaboration and inclusivity, and highlighting the diverse talent within our community. Community Engagement and Impact, throughout the year, Iconic NW CIC has worked with over 1,000 individuals from various backgrounds. Our activities have ranged from skills development and mental health support to artistic expression and community-building initiatives. The impact of our work has been far-reaching, providing tangible benefits for local residents, particularly those who have been most vulnerable or marginalised.
