# COMMUNITY INTEREST ANNUAL REPORT

### EMPOWER MK CIC

### Company Number: 15821752 (England and Wales)

### Year Ending: 31 July 2025

Company activities and impact

We have been doing a number of free events, engaging with the community and reaching out to those who need it the most, and giving them access to live music as a way of supporting their general well-being. We feel it has given those individuals the chance to engage in something that would have otherwise carried a huge cost, but we offered for free. We have also worked in partnership with local community councils, to offer free African drumming sessions, drumming lessons and have also given up and coming musicians, the opportunity to perform and improve on their skills whilst giving back to our local community. We have collaborated with other local community groups such as MK Homeless and community support, performing on the street, in order to help them raise vital funds for vulnerable, homeless individuals. as well as get them engaged in playing instruments generally having fun, as an outlet. As part of our partnership work in the community, we have also been able to connect individuals up with vital services such as food banks, community fridges and other community groups as well as offer advice and guidance where needed. Our aim is to work with other community organisations, to support them and the amazing work that they do whilst promoting culture and diversity within our city as part of their bid to be a UK City of culture by 2029. We are continuing to work with local businesses such as the Dolphin pub, Newport Pagnell, to engage and support up and coming musicians and singers, enabling them to take part in local gigs and festivals, aimed at bringing the community together, promoting culture and diversity through music and managing wellbeing. We will also continue to work alongside local community councils, to enable us to increase our reach and engage with members of the public, who are most in need, and offer any help and support we can.

Consultation with stakeholders

At each event that we have taken part in, we have invited feedback very informally given the nature of what we do, from local residents of Milton Keynes, in particular those who are classed as more vulnerable. This has been taken into consideration when planning future events moving forward. From our most recent African drumming session the local residents of Stony Stratford Milton Keynes, the feedback we received was around making the session longer as the demand was overwhelming with a waiting list of over double the spaces on offer. The participants requested a continuous series of workshops rather than just a one off so that they have more of an opportunity to practice and perform.

Directors' remuneration

No remuneration was received

Transfer of assets
