The Meadows Children and Family Wing has been operating since 1997. Following a consultation with local families and service providers, a programme of services was born to meet the identified needs of the local community and to fill the gaps in current provision.
Our work focuses on working alongside local families and women providing family support and ‘Life After abuse’ support and activities
The Meadows Community Centre has a separate Youth Wing and the main building offers a whole host of services to the community from exercise to computer classes.
Years Supporting Families
Altogether we provide a Centre with a wealth of services and activities for the whole community.
Our work has continued, developed, and grown to meet the needs of our local community, in line and in partnership with them.
MAKING A DIFFERENCE
Our Vision Statement
To provide a fun, safe and stimulating environment where families can come and enjoy themselves together.
LOOKING AHEAD
Our Future Plans
To continue sourcing funding for the continuation and furtherance of the Charity’s work to provide this valuable and crucial resource for the local community.
To continue working alongside the increased number of beneficiaries we have seen throughout this last year, to meet increased needs and to support women and families as we navigate through the aftermath of the health pandemic, in a person centered and timely manner. To continue using new, streamlined and innovative ways of working that were developed throughout the health pandemic whilst resuming in full all our face-to-face activities.
The Charities Objectives are
1. To educate families and the public in better standards of childcare, and in the importance of sound relations between parents and children for the maintenance and enrichment of family life.
2. The relief of poverty and the provision of recreational facilities or other leisure time occupation in the interests of social welfare with the object of improving the conditions of life of persons having need of these facilities by reason of their youth, poverty or social and economic circumstances.
In planning our program of activities each year, we have kept in mind the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and prevention and the relief of poverty for the public benefit. The trustees always ensure that the program of activities we undertake are in line with our charitable objectives and aims.
