Purpose

To create a conducive environment within which a vibrant local economy can be developed and sustained.

Why our community needs our service

In our rural location most community services are over 7 miles away and transport is infrequent. We feel the community needs our charity in order to access an important range of services, information and support on its doorstep.

Results and outcomes

We have supported the community by helping people back into employment or improving their work skills. This reduces social and rural exclusion, especially for the elderly and disabled and ensures their needs are met and voices heard.
