Company activities and impact

Tackling social isolation and food and hygiene poverty. The majority of our community members are benefit funded. The residents are all incapacitated either, physically or mentally, some have learning disabilities, some are disabled and have always been so, approximately 40% of our community began life with healthy bodies, but have suffered strokes, heart problems, cancer, conditions that have taken away their independence. We Support these people in everyday life, providing freshly cooked low cost meals. We deliver to their flats within the building if incapacitated. We enable activities, inclusion, socialising. 2 out of 3 residents with MS were married, but their partners left them when the care became too much. We have 5 stroke victims, 4 with cancer, 2 amputees, 1 paraplegic, 3 with moderate to severe ataxia that is progressing still, 1 registered blind, 2 with progressive parkinsons, 1 with bipolar, 8 with complex learning disabilities. 2 have suffered severe brain injury, 4 were caring for partners that have now passed away, they feel very alone suffering with deep sadness, grief that has induced memory decline. 2 have come to us to escape domestic violence, arrived with nothing having left their belongings behind, they are a long way from home. Some of our people are just in the later stages of life and old age can be a very lonely place. We Support the care and enabling teams in a similar manner, staff meals are half price. Income to the company from meals sales is used to: 1. Provide more meals 2. Purchase products from Inkind Direct that are sold for the purpose of alleviating poverty. Hygiene and household products that are needed tp live a healthy life are often unaffordable for community members, so by providing them along side our main business activities, we are successfully alleviating food, hygiene and financial poverty. We have increased from supporting 10 - 15 household in 2023, to now supporting over 41, n9t including the care and enabling teams and thier families which we estimate to be approximately 40. We have successfully provided over 20 to 30 fresh, affordable meals, 5 days a week, Christmas days included for the whole community.
