Website and Branding
-
A significant milestone was the creation of a new website, featuring a more streamlined and accessible design, along with a full Welsh translation. The transition to a new .org domain demonstrates our goal to expand reach and credibility. The website statistics during this period were 1,870 total visits – approximately 157 per month.

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 5 APRIL 2025
Partnerships and Bids
Worked in collaboration with Agri-cation on a Shared Prosperity Fund (SPF) bid to support NEETs and Year 9 students, focused on building skills and opportunities. Although this application was unsuccessful, it strengthened our partnership and informed future collaborative approaches.
- Continued to strengthen links with employers and training providers, with enquiries for Mental Health First Aid training and bespoke awareness sessions.
Online Presence
-
Activity on social media, particularly LinkedIn, has remained modest between July 2024 and March 2025. Engagement was limited, but posts maintained visibility and provided a platform to share updates and highlight events.
-
Looking ahead, our aim is to build on the launch of the new website, creating more consistent content and increasing online engagement.
Overall, this period has seen Pwrpas build visibility, expand community connections and strengthen our position as a trusted source of mental health support and training.

Amoeba Child Limited £1,746.44, A N Richards £80 and Howden Joinery £296.03 totalling £2,122.47.
