Company activities and impact

Across all of our activities, our focus has remained consistent: supporting families to live healthier, more resilient lives through education, practical skills and inclusive community engagement. Healthy Eating and Lifestyle Education During the year, we have further developed and refined our Healthy Eating Courses. These courses continue to be delivered free of charge to Somerset residents thanks to funding from the Hinkley Point C Community Fund via Somerset Community Foundation. Participation has remained strong, with families reporting meaningful and lasting changes. Feedback highlights improvements in: Children’s concentration and behaviour at school Sleep quality and emotional regulation Confidence in preparing fresh, nutritious meals Overall family wellbeing We have strengthened collaboration with local schools and community organisations, enabling us to reach families who may otherwise face barriers to accessing health education. The courses provide practical, evidence-informed guidance, equipping participants with realistic strategies to improve dietary habits without increasing financial pressure. Strengthening Community Connections Beyond the educational content itself, our programmes continue to create important social connections. Many participants describe the courses as a supportive and encouraging space. Families exchange recipes, share experiences and build friendships that extend beyond the classroom. This sense of belonging has been particularly valuable for parents experiencing isolation. By creating welcoming and inclusive environments, we support not only physical health but also social wellbeing and community cohesion. Preschool Provision Our preschool provision has continued to go from strength to strength and is now firmly established as a thriving and valued part of the local community. Demand for places has increased steadily over the past year, reflecting the trust families place in our setting and the high quality of care and education we provide. This year has also seen significant changes in government childcare policy. Increased support for working parents, including the expansion of 30 hours funded childcare for eligible working parents of children over the age of two, has had a meaningful impact within our community. More families are now able to access funded early years education, reducing financial pressure and making it easier for parents to return to work or increase their working hours. As a result of these changes, our income from government-funded childcare places has increased. This has strengthened the financial sustainability of the preschool while ensuring that high-quality early years education remains accessible and affordable for local families. Most importantly, the expansion of funded childcare has provided peace of mind to parents. Families are able to pursue employment opportunities knowing their children are in a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment. Within the setting, children continue to thrive. They are developing confidence, independence and strong social skills. Through carefully planned activities and child-led learning opportunities, they are growing academically, emotionally and physically. Staff remain committed to creating a warm and engaging environment where every child feels valued and supported. We are proud to see children flourishing in their early years, building strong foundations for lifelong learning while families are supported both practically and financially. “Happy, Healthy Holiday” Programme We have continued delivering the fully funded “Happy, Healthy Holiday” programme in partnership with Somerset Activity and Sports Partnership (SASP). This initiative supports children eligible for free school meals and those identified as vulnerable. The programme provides: Nutritious meals during school holidays Physical activity and outdoor play Creative and educational sessions Opportunities to build friendships and social confidence Feedback from quality assurance visits has been highly positive. Families report that the programme offers not only practical support but also structure, enrichment and emotional stability during school breaks. Overall Community Impact Across all services, our impact this year can be summarised in three key areas: Improved health outcomes. Families report better nutrition, energy levels and wellbeing. Increased resilience in children. Through preschool and holiday provision, children are developing confidence, independence and social skills. Stronger community networks. Participants build supportive relationships that extend beyond our programmes.

Consultation with stakeholders

Community and Parent Feedback Sessions We have continued to hold structured feedback opportunities during and after courses, holiday programmes and preschool sessions. These provide parents and participants with space to share experiences, suggest improvements and highlight emerging needs within the community. Post Event and Course Evaluations At the end of workshops, holiday activities and educational programmes, attendees complete evaluation forms. This allows us to gather measurable feedback on content, delivery, accessibility and overall impact. Online Feedback and Direct Communication Our website includes a contact and enquiry function, enabling families and partners to provide feedback at any time. In addition, daily communication between preschool staff and parents provides ongoing insight into children’s progress and family needs. Actions Taken in Response to Feedback Stakeholder feedback has directly influenced service improvements and strategic decisions over the past year. Programme Adaptation: Families requested more practical, hands-on learning and flexible delivery options. In response, we increased interactive elements within courses and adjusted session formats to better suit working parents. Improved Accessibility: Feedback highlighted the importance of affordability and funded places. We actively supported families to access available government-funded childcare entitlements, helping reduce financial barriers. Enhanced Early Years Support: Parental discussions within the preschool setting led to refined communication systems and clearer progress updates, ensuring families feel fully informed and involved in their child’s development. Conclusion Through consistent consultation and open dialogue, Live Naturally CIC has remained responsive to community needs. Feedback has shaped service delivery, strengthened partnerships and improved accessibility. We remain committed to ensuring that the voices of families, children, staff and partners continue to guide our development and future direction.
