We are a charitable organization based in Sittingbourne, providing both community and prison-based services for minority communities across Kent.
Our service-users
cut across race, age and gender. We offer a holistic and person-centred
package of care for our service-users on issues such as debt management,
housing, employment, education, health, and business opportunities.
We also run special
interest groups, projects, lectures and symposia aimed at
informing, educating, inspiring and challenging people in Kent
into self-reliance and self-actualisation.
Within the prisons we provide
wraparound services mainly for offenders from minority communities and
also ensure continuity of services provided to prevent re-offending upon
release into the community.
We also publish a community magazine, Swale Life, for people living and
working in Swale. The magazine however publishes creative writing and
articles on health and enterprise issues from every part of the world
thereby attracting attention to the our area of operation from a wider
audience. From 2011, Swale Life magazine will also run writing workshops
for young people to help foster interest and develop skills in
journalism and other forms of writing which will benefit our young
throughout their lives.
