In planning our activities & bookings for the year, trustees were mindful of the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit, ensuring that our activities meet our constitutional aims & objectives. Through the success of our funding application made to “Awards For All,” we delivered the following courses & community event at the Lye Community Centre. Activity- English Classes and it’s benefits for the wider community: Better communication between families/generations. This means that parents can help children with something as simple as their homework / education. It also helps to prevent children in our community from being exposed to grooming /radicalisation as they can better communicate with their parents or older family members about any arising issues and concerns. Due to the growing influx of the Roma community residing in Lye , there has been a lot of hostility mainly due to the language barriers between all the diverse communities. To help improve, develop and create healthy relationships and build on community cohesion, it was vital that the focus was prioritised on those activities that were delivered based on common grounds and which supported better communication and linking people together. Activity – Health & Fitness and it’s benefits for the wider community: Happier and healthier communities, improved fitness levels, better management of health conditions, decreasing the burden off the NHS, a facility which is based local, easily accessible and affordable .
