The company's social space and well-being initiatives include weekly chair exercise sessions, two Zumba classes at White City Community Centre, and one Zumba and one chair exercise session per week at Matthew’s Hall and Chiswick Town Hall. Additionally, Acton Vale Community Centre hosts a Zumba session once a week. These activities were provided free of charge for all community members. The Zumba and exercise project is supported by three WhatsApp groups: the first with 231 members, the second with 147 members, and the third with 102 members. While not all participants attend regularly, every woman in these groups has joined at least twice a week throughout the sessions. Furthermore, 45 other women and men have taken part in the classes without joining any of the WhatsApp groups, bringing the total number of participants over the period to 525.
The feedback for the service has been overwhelmingly positive, with participants reporting a wide range of different wellness benefits: Mental well-being: feeling happier, lighter. Younger, more energised, less bored, less empty, less stressed and more self-care time and more self-confidence. Physical wellbeing: feeling generally fitter and healthier, losing weight, improved strength and flexibility and relieved from aches and pain. Social wellbeing: no more feeling lonely / Isolation, more confidence to getting to know neighbours, making friends, supporting each other, learning about other Cultures and improving English language skills. Building Skills and Confidence Engaging in the Zumba and exercise program has also played a crucial role in developing participants' skills and boosting their confidence. Through regular participation, individuals have enhanced their coordination, discipline, and perseverance. The program has provided opportunities to learn new techniques, set and achieve personal goals, and push beyond comfort zones. This sense of accomplishment has led to increased self-esteem and a greater willingness to take on new challenges, both inside and outside the sessions. By fostering resilience and determination, the initiative has empowered participants to embrace growth and self-improvement. Based on feedback we welcome broader support and recognition of our efforts in community grant-making and strategic partnerships while exploring sustainable and impactful funding models for the CIC Activities. The Company will continue to seek ways in which it can engage with the business community to continue supporting charitable causes. It will look at how it engages with businesses and charities for future events and partnerships. Community meals will be organised to reduce social isolation and to help community members understand more about healthy cooking and eating on a budget. Grocery shopping – The company aim to give a £50 shopping allowance to 130 people to contribute towards their food bills in the coming financial year.
During the year, Directors receive remuneration or other benefits of £11,780 for providing the Zumba and other training activities for the community members as professional coaches.
