-
To promote social inclusion for the public benefit by preventing people from becoming socially excluded, relieving the needs of those people who are socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society.
Throughout the course of planning and managing our activities for this the organisation has very much kept in mind the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit at our trustee meetings.
We have developed a variety of programmes and communication tools in order to reach and appeal to as many people in the community as possible. This is an ongoing process, we are learning all the time and we are improving and increasing these year on year.
Our focus has been to address social isolation and exclusion, Summary of the main strengthening mental health and physical well-being through community activities undertaken for the team projects responding to emerging needs and requests such as public benefit in relation to nature conservation and river clean-ups, community markets, community these objects (include within bee-keeping, neighbourhood COVID-19 support network, individual art this section the statutory projects, among many other events.

achievements of the charity Traffic Neighbourhood for our area that enabled a new day-to-day
-
during the year public space to be created on a pedestrianised bridge. This has given KINCA the opportunity, in partnership with the local Council, to begin to develop this community space. We have been able to access property developer Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) funds through the Council in order to commission public seating and greenery for a number of spaces.
-
The Arts & Heritage Trail: This was able to continue under COVID19 as it involved individual artists outdoors.
-
Naomi’s Corner: This is one of the most popular areas for a diverse range of individuals and groups to visit, relax and socialise. It also has a community book exchange. It continues to be maintained by a local watering and weeding volunteer team from KINCA.
-
Community Beekeeping: this has been able to continue despite COVID-19. Additional volunteers have been recruited and trained.
-
Green Kelham: this is one of our most popular programmes and has several purposes: i) to steward the river and nature running through the heart of the community, ii) to create new green spaces (we have very few being in the city centre), iii) provide an opportunity for people to get to know one another through exercise and fresh air, iv) learn new skills. Apart from continuing the existing programmes of river clean-ups, community beekeeping and developing more green spaces, we continue to develop a network of strategic and practical partnerships with a range of local and regional groups that enable us to support and develop inter-neighbourhood activities. Examples would be working with the Environment Agency and a social enterprise charity together with a wildlife and the River Stewardship Company to link up a chain of conservation and ecological projects along the River Don. Some of these activities were able to continue in between COVID-19 restrictions, largely because they are outdoors.
-
Guided Walks: There are three types of guided walks, historical, public art, and naturalist. The walks are intended to suit all ages and abilities and are a way of gently tipping people into exercise.
-
“The Islander”: This is a full colour newsletter in a magazine format steered by a local residents’ team of very skilled people. It is hugely popular and contains local interviews, updates on projects, opportunities for community participation, and local news. The newsletter is funded by local council Ward Pot funds and donations.
-
Clean Kelham:
Despite COVID-19 we were able to maintain our litter-picking project. All our activities are steered by volunteers.
