Operations:

What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:

The charity is involved in a few projects and causes such as: -The football project, a beacon of inclusivity, has provided a platform for over 25 youths since its inception in 2021. These youth, hailing from diverse backgrounds such as refugees, asylum seekers, individuals with care home experienced, and those with physical disabilities, are the heart and soul of this initiative. -The community’s Children’s After-School Activities program, Special Support for Autism, and Mentoring Teenagers on to the University Entrance initiative serve as foundational pillars in nurturing the growth and development of children and teenagers within the locality. -The “Women’s Support Program” addresses the pressing challenges encountered by many women in our community, particularly those newly settled in the UK. A predominant issue stems from these women being unfamiliar with the environment and lifestyle, often isolating themselves at home while their husbands are out for work.
