We keep the community better informed about services they are entitled to with increased access to information on keeping healthy and provide greater opportunities to engage in activities that bring local residents together improving their mental, physical, emotional and social well being. These benefits can be demonstrated by – the lobbying of statutory authorities, voluntary organisations, and the inhabitants in the common effort to advance education, and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation and other leisure activities with the object of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants. These can be demonstrated through feedback from local residents gathered from feedback forms, and by the success of the group in identifying and meeting the needs of residents. We can also identify through the attendees of training courses and information sessions provided by the association. The beneficiaries of this purpose are initially our residents of the local area of Conlig Village in Bangor and those associated with the area.
