Kingsway Community Connections is a Scottish registered charity (SC030788) and is registered as a company limited by guarantee (SC375922). Our Vision is one of a Proud, Capable and Confident multi-cultural community. Our Mission is to build social capital within the community. That is, we believe increasing people’s confidence, esteem, sense of connectedness and belonging is likely to be the most effective contribution our organisation can make to addressing health inequalities and improving health and wellbeing within the community. We aim to do this by generating resources and opportunities to improve people’s chances of personal growth & wellness. It becomes the hub at the heart of the community. At one level, it’s the hub for local residents to participate, developing a sense of ownership and trust. On another level, it’s a gateway to local residents for other service providers, enabling better access to target groups. It offers sustainable community regeneration because the Centre:

* Develops awareness and understanding of health, poverty and inequality issues;

* Challenges attitudes and lifestyles, encouraging behavioural change and it aids the integration process;

* Acts as a social outlet and source of physical and emotional support for many;

* Develops a sense of pride in the community;

* Encourages self confidence and personal development;

* Promotes individual responsibility and mutual respect.

A Powerful Contribution to Our AGM

A huge thank you to Wayne James, Managing Director of ML Community Enterprise in Brixton, for joining Kingsway Community Connections’ AGM (online).

Wayne spoke about how KCC and ML Community Enterprise first came together and how our organisations have worked collaboratively to highlight what is happening on the ground; particularly the impact of violence on young people, families and communities.

He reflected on the striking similarities between Glasgow and Brixton, and the challenges communities face when young people are exposed to violence, exploitation and a lack of opportunities.

Wayne also spoke passionately about the responsibility of leaders to listen to communities, understand what is really happening on the ground, properly fund grassroots initiatives and, importantly, commit to that work for the long term.

Real change doesn’t happen through short-term projects or words alone. It requires investment, relationships, trust and a genuine commitment to supporting the people and organisations already doing the work in our communities.

We are grateful to Wayne for sharing his experience, his insight and his continued support for the work of Kingsway Community Connections.

It was fantastic to come together with our community, partners, members and supporters to reflect on the work we’ve achieved over the past year and look ahead to what comes next.

A special thank you to our guest speaker, Wayne James, Managing Director of ML Community Enterprise in Brixton, for joining us and sharing his experiences, insights and inspiration.

We’re also pleased to announce that our Annual Impact Report is now available to download from our website. It highlights the difference our projects, staff, volunteers, partners and, most importantly, our community have made over the past year.
