Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

The charity also carried out structured community surveys to gather wider feedback. Survey responses highlighted increased demand for food support, wellbeing services, and skills development. These findings directly informed service planning and resource allocation. As a result of this engagement, the charity adapted its activities to better meet local needs, increased participation in its services, and strengthened trust within the community.
