Company activities and impact

During the financial year, De La Colina Community Interest Company (C.I.C.) has continued to deliver impactful initiatives aimed at improving the well-being, empowerment, and sustainability of our local and wider community. Our activities focus on: EmpowerHer – Menstrual Health and Period Poverty Initiatives: We have expanded our Period Bank to provide free menstrual hygiene products and educational resources to individuals and families in need. Through workshops, awareness campaigns, EmpowerHer has educated over 100 individuals on menstrual health, hygiene, and the management of Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD). This initiative has directly improved the health, confidence, and daily lives of many women and young girls, reducing barriers caused by period poverty. Green Fashion – Sustainable and Ethical Fashion Initiatives: Through Green Fashion, De La Colina has promoted sustainable fashion practices, including the use of eco-friendly materials, upcycling, and ethical production methods. We have hosted online workshops to raise awareness of sustainability in fashion. This initiative not only nurtures creativity and employment opportunities but also contributes to environmental conservation and responsible consumer practices. Safe Steps Alliance – Migrant Support: Our Safe Steps Alliance has assisted migrants in accessing integration support, and empowerment opportunities. By providing education, advocacy, and community engagement, the programme has facilitated social inclusion, personal development, and access to vital services for individuals, strengthening community cohesion. Collectively, these activities have positively impacted the lives of community members throughout the financial year. Through a combination of direct service delivery, education, advocacy, and partnership-building, De La Colina has fostered a more inclusive, healthy, and empowered community.

Consultation with stakeholders

De La Colina C.I.C. recognises a wide range of stakeholders who are affected by, or have an interest in, the company’s activities. These include: Beneficiaries of our programmes, including women and girls accessing EmpowerHer, clients of DLC Care, participants in Green Fashion workshops, and migrants supported through Safe Steps Alliance. Employees and volunteers involved in delivering our services. Partner organisations, including local schools, community centres, healthcare providers, and other charities. Funders and grant providers who support our initiatives. Local authorities and regulators, including public health and social care oversight bodies. Suppliers and service providers who contribute to our operations. Consultation Methods: During the financial year, De La Colina has engaged stakeholders through a variety of channels: Surveys and feedback forms: Participants in our EmpowerHer and DLC Care programmes were invited to provide feedback on the services they received, including satisfaction, suggestions for improvement, and unmet needs. Focus groups and community meetings: Small group discussions were held with beneficiaries of Green Fashion and Safe Steps Alliance to better understand their needs and experiences. Regular partner engagement: Meetings and communications with partner organisations ensured alignment of objectives and identified areas for collaboration and improvement. Internal staff and volunteer feedback sessions: Staff and volunteers were consulted through team meetings and one-on-one discussions to identify operational challenges and opportunities for better service delivery. Actions Taken in Response to Feedback: Based on feedback from EmpowerHer participants, we expanded the range of menstrual hygiene products offered and introduced educational workshops specifically addressing PMDD awareness. Feedback from Green Fashion participants influenced the creation of more accessible and interactive sustainability workshops. Safe Steps Alliance consultations highlighted the need for additional guidance sessions, which were subsequently introduced. Volunteer feedback led to enhanced training programmes, improved health and safety measures, and better internal communication processes. Through these consultations, De La Colina has demonstrated a commitment to actively listening to stakeholders and continuously improving our services to meet the evolving needs of the community.
