Life and Learning in the Community Project
Streets Ahead secured three years of Community Fund (Lottery) funding from 15 April, 2018 to15 April, 2021 for a project which will offer support, activities and volunteering opportunities for people in Gresham to bring the community together, reduce isolation and improve the local environment. A one stop shop will provide help with education, employment, crime prevention and environmental protection, a job and computer club, and access to local service providers. Streets Ahead serves a diverse community including refugees and asylum seekers and will offer specific support for new arrivals to the area. A range of initiatives related to this projects are underway and showing results exceeding our expectation. See below and on other pages for information about these. |
