We are based in Walsall, which geographically, is an area of high deprivation. Falling within the 10% most deprived areas in the country, according to the Government Indices of Multiple Deprivation. Which unfortunately, is reflected through the social neglection of LGBTQI+ and BAME individuals. As aforementioned, our organisation focused on a particular group who were substantially underrepresented and were slipping through the net. Therefore, A&A Services created a safe space for individuals from a LGBTQ+ and BAME background, providing social support to these particular groups who experience loneliness, isolation and disconnection from the community. Therefore, we are offering a neglected group of individuals an opportunity to engage with sporting activities in a safe and comfortable environment. We will offer activities such as: rounders, football, badminton, zumba and dance. Activities will be carried out indoors in our office location, as well as outdoors in the local park.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
Our project will promote inclusivity and social cohesion by offering sporting activities in the heart of our community for a vulnerable group wanting to expand their social circles in a safe environment.
