Organisational status and funding update

Starting Point, which is part of the East Thames Group, has been supporting us since July 2013 with affordable 'hot-desking' facilities as well as training. This has rapidly impacted the progress we have made with our administrative setup to date.

Thanks to the Big Lottery Fund, we finally qualify to proceed with our charity status registration with the Charity Commission. Our application for an Award for All Grant was successful and we were awarded £10,000 in September 2014 to develop our infrastructure and build our capacity for our first project “Bridging the Gap for Survivors”. We very much appreciate this support from the Big Lottery Fund.
