Achievements and Performance

Because of the pandemics and the uncertainty that followed, the launch of the organization and its activity has been on hold. So we didn’t do any work since the registration.

We haven’t applied nor get any funding since the registration and we haven’t spend any money on any activity as well.

Our account only has 200£ paid by the bank for a complaint we raised.
