Our Mission

To establish a hub that offers essential resources and equal opportunities for residents to develop their life skills and mental wellbeing, ultimately empowering our local and neighbouring communities

​​

We believe a single action can transform a community, and collective action can change the world. Through diligent advocacy and outreach, our team is dedicated to making a meaningful, lasting impact on the broader community.

Research identifies Lewisham as a borough with significant social challenges: over a third of children live in poverty, and nearly 37% of 19-year-olds lack a Level 3 qualification. Furthermore, the borough maintains high levels of benefit dependency. The Winslade Estate is situated within a particularly underserved pocket of London, where a diverse community—including lone parents, EAL families, and senior citizens—frequently lacks access to essential life-skills training and mental health support.​

​

Our Core Values

• Accountability, Excellence, and Dedication: We are guided by these pillars in every action we take.

• Safety First: The health and wellbeing of our members and the people we support are our highest priorities.

• Collaborative Delivery: We actively involve those we support in our work, ensuring we deliver the best possible outcomes through shared effort.

• Dignity and Respect: We treat every resident with compassion, respecting their choices while promoting inclusion, independence, and their fundamental rights.

• Empowering Aspirations: We are committed to helping residents realize and achieve their personal goals.

• Proactive Problem Solving: We identify local challenges and develop community-led solutions that promote health, positive lifestyles, and sustainable employment.
