Work, training & further education Throughout our five decade history as a grassroots organisation we've always worked alongside and recruited members of our community, bringing their invaluable lived-experience to our work whilst they learn new skills themselves. Some of our longest serving managers started out that way! Creating much needed training and employment offers is incredibly important to us, so we strive to find ways to generate opportunities that both support our mission and give local people a chance. Can you support local people find their place? Whilst we continue to create opportunities flocallly, we are always looking for ways to support our community to find the skills and employment prospects that are right for them. Through our family-centred approach we build trusting relationships with parents meaning we are well placed to introduce them to trusted partners who can offer work experience, training and mentoring opportunties. If your organisation has social impact schemes centred on raising skills in the community we'd love to hear from you to explore possibilities! Email our team We can support your team or students gain experience We've developed a strong culture of continuous professional development, accredited training programmes and work experience opportunities making us experienced in creating opportunities to help people gain experieince and enhance their professional developement.

Our action group promoting sustainability in Waltham Forest Working towards a greener future Led by one of our dedicated trustees our 'ecO' action group is making the postive changes urgently needed to safeguard the planet for our children. Join Us! A history of being green Built to last We purchase high quality toys and equipment designed to last Re-use We re-use recyclable materials for arts and crafts activities Eating more plants We've created menus with a healthy balance of vegetarian and plant based foods Using less energy We have conserved energy by turning off lighting and devices when not in use Fewer plastic bottles We've used water coolers to reduce plastic bottle use Shorter supply chains We buy from local suppliers wherever possible Taking Action We appointed a dedicated, trustee-led 'ecO' working group to drive our work and provide good governance 2023 Eco-Audit After identifying that we wanted to go fruther to be more sustainble, we realised that we needed some expert assistance to assess just how sustainable we were. We needed an eco-audit! We bid for and were awarded funding from the City Bridge Foundation allowing us to bring in '3 Acorns' environmental consultants to perform a full eco-audit with our teams. Our eco-audit analysed everything from our energy and water consumption, consumables usage and waste output through to ingredients used in our menus and even the greenness of our banking suppliers! Responding to our eco-audit Actions we've already taken to reduce our carbon foot print Food We've increased the number of plant based options in our menus and completely removed the most polluting meat, beef. Water We've replaced plastic water syphons with filter jugs in our staff rooms and we're also exploring ways to: completely eliminate plastic water bottles usage collect rainwater safley for gardening and outdoors cleaning. use cistern blocks and water usage awareness campaigns to reduce our consumption. Finance Most of our financial arrangemetns are now placed with ethical and eco-friendly providers. We're exploring ways to bank more sustainably and ethically as a priority. Waste We've installed more recyling bins and made it much easier to spearate out the various materials Composting bins are also now in place cutting out any food wastaging that would've gon to landfil. Nappies We are working hard to replace disposable nappies with reusable nappy kits in our centres and are currently piloting the switch in our Higham Hill Centre with a view to rolling out at the Lloyd Park Centre too. Our Community Services team are also promoting resusable nappy usage in other community support sessions across Waltham Forest. We couldn't have achieved this without the support of three amazing organisations; Waltham Forest Cloth Nappy Library , the Women's Environmental Network (WEN) and Nappy Ever After. Many, many thanks to them, we're looking forward to continuing our work together! See our dedicated Cloth Nappy page here Working with our community to address the climate crisis We want to go much further in working with our local community to build a greener, brighter future for our children, and we need your help! Whether you're an interested parent/carer, a local service provider, another organisation working on sustainability or an individual with expertise to share, we want to hear from you! If you have ideas to share or want to join our action group please email us to find out more! Email our Team
