Achievements against Para 1.41 objectives set
Whilst we’ve managed to deliver some of our workshops which fits our objective, we were keen to be quite ambitious and extend our reach rapidly however this didn’t happen as expected due to our funding applications being unsuccessful.
We therefore decided it was best

to focus on delivering an 1hr
workshops for now.
This year we focused more on a
strategic approach with an
outreach plan in how we would
identify and contact key contacts
in the community. Which were
one of our soft outcomes.
At the period when we were
officially registered we had

against objectives set Entrepreneurs. Since then, we
have continued to apply for start-
up grants from organisations like
Unltd, Fair Education Alliance,
however we were unsuccessful.
We had targeted these particular
schemes, as we were undergoing
the process of researching and
applying for a charity bank
account. Furthermore, we were
also aware that based on the
criteria of grant applications if we
did not have a bank account then
we would be ineligible to apply.
However, we now have a charity
account in place so we’ll continue
make applications to trusts and
foundations.
