The centre is welcome to all but has a focus on Somali and other minority ethnic groups within Grahame Park. We help by offering advocacy on mental and physical health, housing, money management, employment, CV writing workshops and cultural events.
We run free weekly football sessions for young children whose parents are facing financial troubles by creating a hub for children in Grahame Park to have access to sports without any worries, improving confidence and happiness in the children.
