Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
We have continued to support those at risk of homelessness as well as those who are vulnerable due to struggling financially. We have seen a significant rise in families struggling with food, utility bills and rent, therefore a high percentage of our work has been to prevent poverty and possible evictions. The majority of our work has been early intervention. Our charity’s work has prevented poverty (financial and food) and prevented many possible cases of homelessness.
