DEMRP Trustees Report 2023

DEMRP continues to deliver a clearly focused social and economic regeneration activities and developing and delivering education, training and employment opportunities to BAME and hard to reach communities

As a small voluntary and community sector organisation delivering services locally through funded by the Community Fund, DEMRP continues to develop progression routes from non-accredited to accredited training and capacity building and support service & activities targeting the most vulnerable and deprived marginalised communities.

During the financial year 22/23 DEMRP has only been funded to provide development support services by the Community Fund i.e. Drop-in information, advice & guidance, ESOL and Secure English Language Test preparation courses, assist with support around issues of debt and money management, employability training and Health & wellbeing activities and physical & mental wellbeing support services to over 450 BAME and local disadvantaged communities, without their support it would not have been possible to continue to deliver our services.

DEMRP continues to invest heavily in working with the local community, partners and other general and specialist infrastructure organisations to ensure that we continue to deliver high quality of education, employment, community development and training opportunities to encourage BAME learners to make informed choices and DEMRP widening participation agenda.

We hope that this report gives a good flavour of the work of the organisation over the last year, an indication of the identified learning needs that translate into future work, and the significant contribution that the DEMRP and its staff / volunteers makes to building the capacity of the VCS in Doncaster and in the sub region, and ultimately improving the quality of life for local residents of Doncaster. We completed the financial year 2022/23 with a roll on grant funding from the Community Fund.

In addition to our core aims and objectives, we set out to achieve the following:

To extend our training programmes in order to attract a wider range of learners from local neighborhood individuals, groups and organisations
To ensure that our outreaching targeted more marginalised groups that have not taken up training and integration opportunities in the past and find ways of ensuring individual participants ’ skills’ needs and shortages were addressed
To actively seek new partnerships that could facilitate access to the resources necessary to help us to be more proactive in responding to the learning and employability skill needs of Doncaster and the surrounding area.
To apply different accreditation and progression routes that could be utilises on any of the courses that we run, so that learners have the wider choices of gaining qualification ‘round off’ their learning through a process of reflection that they then receive accreditation for.
To continue to develop and increase our capacity to work in partnership more effectively so as to increase the organisations sustainability
