Public benefits
The direct benefits of our objects are to make a lasting impact on women, young people, and families at the margins of society; we aim to do this by providing them with the help and support necessary to rebuild their lives, increase confidence, improve self-esteem, equip them with the necessary life skills, and provide them with opportunities so
they can reach their full potential. These benefits are demonstrated through regular evaluation forms from every participant on the programmes. The organisation receives updated information from facilitators by way of report forms and participant evaluation forms. The procedures will take into account the aims and objectives of the project. Regular evaluation will allow for any potential under-achieving aspects of the project to be identified and addressed promptly, thus avoiding long term damage and shortfalls that may impact service delivery. Accountable and regular evaluation of the project is essential to ensure the services and activities provided to all participants are relevant and fulfilling their intended objective; also to ensure the organisation measures it's effectiveness and incorporates changing trends and needs among the target group. The purposes of our charity will not lead to any harm. The charity's beneficiaries are disadvantaged women and young girls living within North and West Belfast who suffer from socio-economic issues and other problems such as loneliness, anxiety, depression, mental health, domestic violence, addiction, low esteem and no confidence. The immediate families of women and young girls who take part in our programmes will also be of benefit due to the positive change in mindset and attitude in the recipient(s).

Established in 2011, Glow NI was developed from a common desire of women in the local community to address issues facing their peers such as low self-esteem & confidence, mental health problems, isolation and a general lack of purpose. Glow NI challenges the status quo in order to break the cycle of these issues by equipping women and young girls
with tools and techniques to build their confidence, self-esteem, resilience and life skills. This will help them set positive, realistic steps in achieving their goals, enabling them to live happy fulfilled lives. Glow NI believes that all women and girls have purpose and so our unique programmes create a positive atmosphere and allow the opportunity for women and girls to discover their true selves. This has a knock on effect as participants can positively impact on their family and community, especially in setting young female family members up with confidence and life skills to have a successful future.
