Company activities and impact

During the financial year, our company has actively supported the local community through a range of initiatives. We held six drop-in sessions for residents in need of interpreting services, assistance with form-filling, and access to other essential support. To engage and support young people, we ran 12 monthly sessions providing fun activities, opportunities for socialising, and homework support, helping to foster both personal and educational development. We also organised two women’s conferences, offering guidance on becoming self-employed or starting a small business, empowering women to pursue financial independence. In addition, we hosted a commemoration event in honour of the victims of the Holocaust, bringing the community together to reflect and pay tribute. Beyond these key activities, we arranged regular coffee mornings to reduce social isolation, a book exchange scheme to encourage reading within the community, and basic digital skills workshops to help residents improve their confidence in using technology. Through these efforts, our company has made a meaningful impact by promoting inclusivity, empowerment, and social well-being within the community.

Consultation with stakeholders

Throughout the financial year, we engaged with key stakeholders to ensure our activities met the needs of the community effectively. We sought feedback from residents through informal discussions at our drop-in sessions, allowing us to tailor our services, such as interpreting assistance and form-filling support, to better address their concerns. We also consulted young people and their parents to shape our monthly youth sessions, ensuring they provided a balance of fun activities, social opportunities, and academic support. Their feedback led to the introduction of additional group activities and study resources. For our women’s conferences, we engaged with local business owners, community leaders, and women’s groups to understand the specific barriers faced by those looking to become self-employed. This allowed us to provide relevant advice and connect participants with useful resources. Additionally, we worked closely with local faith groups and community organisations when planning the Holocaust commemoration event, ensuring the programme was respectful, inclusive, and meaningful.
