Community Support Activities

Build trust, encourage resilience, reduce isolation

Outreach

STN provides outreach programs to help vulnerable people who, for a variety of reasons, might not have access to mainstream services. We aim to promote Community Enhancement and create a fairer society for all. We know that disadvantaged people in the community feel detached from society; this can create various psychological issues which may lead to depression with its many negative repercussions.

We appoint volunteers who enjoy helping others and improving their community. We offer outreach over the phone, face to face, sometimes visiting people at home, or accompanying people to GP, hospital appointment, court, local authority housing and social work teams, deliver essential stuff to people who need immediate support. We also liaise with service providers on behalf of our beneficiaries and referring cases to appropriate specialist providers as required. We have multi-lingual staff who are fully trained in providing effective services, advising clients on which benefits can help them and how to deal with the Department for Work and Pensions, HMRC and local authority benefit offices. We also provide outreach to single parent’s mums especially destitute asylum seekers and refugees to learn the language, collect old supplies to kids in a homeless shelter, and etc. We conduct it in a group or one to one basis outreach support service.

Participants’ views about STN

Our beneficiaries enjoy the friendly, multicultural, and professional environment.

We achieved excellent success stories, positive and rewarding achievements for our participants, local communities. We have got lots of case studies to showcase our hard work to win the trust and confidence of every member that we help.

*STN educates, empowers, inspires and trains the needier individuals in our community; helping people to overcome barriers and improve their lives. Sharing this journey is a joyful and rewarding experience for all involved.

*We have a strong track record in dealing with vulnerable and marginalised people who face multiple barriers, often worsened by long term unemployment and they progressed to positive routes and become role models.

*We get to know our participants well enough to tailor our programs, to offer the right services to their needs and aspirations. By building rapport we develop strong working relationships based on friendship, trust and mutual respect.
