Company activities and impact

The company operates as a community-based, not-for-profit platform designed to strengthen the community of Palestinians living in the UK, while deepening connections within the diaspora. The organisation hosts cultural, social, and national events. During the financial year, the company’s activities have benefited the community in the following ways: Educational Support: The company established and ran the Palestinian School in West London, providing weekly Saturday classes in Arabic language, national education, and cultural education for local children aged 5–11. This service allowed families to preserve their cultural heritage, with the community providing free textbooks to make the classes accessible. Cultural Preservation and Community Cohesion: The company organised the Annual Palestinian Craft Fair, which brought community members together to celebrate rich cultural heritage through literature, theatre, art, poetry, and traditional music. This event fostered community spirit and provided a platform for Palestinian artisans and creators to showcase their work in the UK. Representation: The company successfully amplified the voices of the UK-based Palestinian community by hosting high-profile Voice of Palestinian Women sessions and the "First Palestinian Women's Conference in Britain" empowered community members and ensured their concerns were heard by policymakers. Youth Empowerment: The company launched the Palestinian Youth Council, engaging young Palestinians aged 16–25. This initiative provided a structured environment for youth to develop leadership skills, connect with their peers, and actively participate in shaping the future of their community. Humanitarian Support: The company collaborated with external charities (such as Project Pure Hope and PCRF) to facilitate the arrival of wounded Palestinian children from Gaza for life-saving medical treatment in the UK, pledging and coordinating full community support for the affected families during their stay.

Consultation with stakeholders

Who the company's stakeholders are: The company's stakeholders include Palestinian residents and families living in the UK, community members of the wider Arab diaspora in London and across the UK, parents and children enrolled in the Palestinian School, young people aged 16–25 engaged through the Palestinian Youth Council, UK Members of Parliament and policymakers, and partner organisations such as Project Pure Hope and the Palestine Children's Relief Fund (PCRF). How the stakeholders have been consulted: Stakeholders have been consulted through a range of methods during the financial year. These include open community meetings and discussion events, such as the open discussion forum on the Palestinian situation held in February 2025. The company also held the First Palestinian Women's Conference in Britain in January 2025, which provided a formal platform for women within the community to raise concerns and contribute to the organisation's direction. Parliamentary sessions hosted at Westminster allowed community members to engage directly with policymakers. In addition, the company communicates regularly with its membership and the wider community through its website, social media channels, and direct email correspondence. Actions taken in response to feedback: In response to feedback from community members regarding the need for cultural and linguistic education for children, the company established and continued to run the Palestinian School, offering weekly Saturday Arabic language classes. Following community calls for greater youth representation, the company launched the Palestinian Youth Council. In response to urgent humanitarian concerns raised by community members, the company partnered with external charities to facilitate the arrival of wounded children from Gaza for medical treatment in the UK.
