Company activities and impact

Belina Grow CIC is dedicated to developing projects that engage and empower women who are currently outside the labour market. Starting in January 2023 we have managed to secure a range of grants which have assisted women in work.

Consultation with stakeholders

Our stakeholders are the women we support and our partners. We work closely with the women we support and have many opportunities to consult with them, using this information to inform our own work and the work of other research and policy organisations. Our research programme provides us with detailed quantitative and qualitative information gained by surveys, one-to-one interviews, and group discussions. This has allowed us to interview partners as well. Every week we interview one person on the programme and share this with everyone – we find out what works for them and where they want to be. We also make it a point to ask people in person at our one-to-ones, through our feedback at events and on our app, where everyone can comment.

Directors' remuneration

We have provided this in our accounts.

Transfer of assets
