Community Teams

The purpose of community teams is to build self esteem and community cohesion in places where people have very little.

Our teams provide people the opportunity and space to spend quality time with eachother, having fun and learning new skills. Building people’s self esteem and encouraging unity plays a vital part in people’s wellbeing.

In particular we work with groups of women in communities as they often the ones that are marginalised in society. Through encouragement and skills development we focus on building their self esteem and empowering them to take an active role in their communities.

For example one team visited Romania to do activities, crafts and basic health education with local ladies in that community. This was a great time for the ladies to socialise with one another building real sense of community spirit.
