Public benefits

The Direct benefits which the participants and beneficiaries who attend our courses and programmes we run is increased opportunities to acquire new skills. Ability to increase literacy, numeracy and it skills and acquire level 1 and 2 qualifications in child protection, basic food hygiene and first. Achievement of these qualifications will lead

to increased confidence, reduce feelings of isolation and will increase numbers obtaining qualifications. This is evidenced through attendance sheets and monitoring and evaluation of services provided by both tutors and participants. There is no potential harm arising from this purpose. The direct benefits of healthy programmes is an increased healthy lifestyle, reduction of stress. We minimise the harm by having experienced and qualified tutors delivering all classes. There is a small private benefit from all our classes as they are open to both trustees and committee members, however there is no preferential treatment and all participants must register for classes. We carry out risk assessments for our classes and have adequate insurance cover. The benefits of our programmes outweigh the potential harm. There is no private benefit from any of our courses.
