Company activities and impact

In 2024/25, KDLK delivered a number of impactful programmes designed to support FGM survivors and vulnerable members of our community. We coordinated weekly workshops and one-to-one safe support sessions specifically tailored for survivors of FGM and domestic abuse. These sessions provided safe, confidential environments where survivors could begin their healing journeys, develop coping strategies, and receive both emotional and practical support from trained professionals. In addition to individual support, we hosted fortnightly group discussions involving survivors, their partners, and wider community members in Southwark. These sessions were designed to reduce stigma and isolation, allowing participants to connect through shared experiences and build a supportive peer network. The sessions encouraged survivors to realise they are not alone and helped bridge the gap between affected individuals and the broader community. Since May 6th, 2020, our "Reaching Out to Your Community" Food Support Service has been addressing food insecurity among refugees, asylum seekers, and low-income families in Southwark. this programme continued to provide weekly distributions of essential supplies to those in need. Our food parcels include fresh fruit and vegetables, pasta and rice, cooked meals, meats and poultry, toiletries, cleaning supplies, and baby items. Additionally, we offer supermarket vouchers to help families meet other basic needs, such as utility top-ups and personal hygiene items not covered in our regular distributions. This service has become a vital lifeline for many vulnerable residents in Peckham and beyond. In 2025, we also delivered four health outreach workshops in Peckham focused on raising awareness around harmful practices and promoting sexual health. These workshops provided information on the dangers of FGM, early/forced marriage, and child marriage, as well as education on sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including HIV. The sessions were developed in collaboration with local healthcare professionals to ensure accurate, accessible information was provided to our refugee and asylum-seeking communities.
