OpenDorz’s activities in the financial year have had a positive impact on the community by addressing key social, economic, and educational needs. Here's how: Addressing Food Insecurity and Supporting Families OpenDorz provided over 1288 meals and supported 266 children and their families during school holidays, ensuring vulnerable children had access to nutritious food and physical activities. This initiative alleviated food insecurity and promoted healthy living, helping families stay strong during difficult times. Empowering Young People through Education and Awareness OpenDorz ran workshops for teenagers on consent and healthy relationships, providing them with vital education on personal boundaries, respect, and healthy communication. These workshops empowered young people with the knowledge to make informed decisions and build healthy relationships, contributing to a more respectful and supportive community. Volunteering and Skills Development With over 600 hours of voluntary work completed, OpenDorz created valuable opportunities for individuals to give back to the community while gaining skills that enhance personal and professional growth. The organisation also provided free training opportunities to staff and volunteers, ensuring they have the skills and knowledge to deliver high-quality services to the community. Supporting the Homeless Community OpenDorz supported the homeless community by providing essentials at Christmas, ensuring that individuals without stable housing had access to basic needs during the holiday season. This outreach demonstrated a commitment to those in the most vulnerable positions and helped make the festive season more bearable for those in need. Promoting Digital Inclusion The company provided over 100 SIM cards and mobile phones to individuals without access to digital resources. This helped bridge the digital divide and ensured that individuals could stay connected, access essential services, and seek employment opportunities, improving their overall quality of life. Strengthening Local Communities and Supporting Small Businesses By partnering with local businesses and fostering community ties, OpenDorz contributed to the sustainability of small enterprises, encouraging collaboration and mutual support. This created a more resilient local economy and helped promote community cohesion. Encouraging Sustainable Living through Food Growing Initiatives OpenDorz taught families and young people how to grow their own food, empowering them to become more self-sufficient and sustainable. This initiative not only promoted healthy eating but also helped individuals develop valuable skills in gardening and sustainability, fostering long-term food security. Creating a Joyful, Inclusive Holiday Event The Christmas Showcase was a standout initiative, offering a free family-friendly day of local talent, food, prizes, and entertainment. The event was inclusive and accessible to all, allowing community members to celebrate together, regardless of their financial situation. It strengthened community ties, supported local artists, and ensured everyone could participate in the holiday spirit. In summary, OpenDorz’s activities over the financial year have benefited the community by improving food security, supporting vulnerable populations, promoting youth education, offering volunteering opportunities, fostering digital inclusion, strengthening local businesses, and creating inclusive events. These efforts have contributed to a more resilient, connected, and empowered community.
Opendorz values input from its stakeholders to ensure our activities effectively serve the community. We have engaged with key groups such as the local police, schools, youth centers, community organisations (e.g., StreetGames, Bring It On Brum), and local businesses to gather feedback and improve our programmes. Opendorz has used various consultation methods to engage with the community, including regular meetings with community partners and the police, surveys, feedback forms for families and students, workshops with local organisations, and informal conversations with residents and volunteers. In response, several actions were taken: enhanced safety measures and increased police presence at events, expanded workshops on consent, healthy relationships, and personal safety, support for local youth centers through holiday programmes, digital inclusion initiatives offering free phones and data, free stalls for local businesses at events, and improved access to community programmes with free meals and activities for families. These efforts have allowed Opendorz to adapt its activities to better meet community needs and create a positive impact.
