About Us
Steppingstones in the community was established during COVID-19, we began with supporting members of the community with providing food packs, supporting the elderly with collecting prescriptions, as well as supporting them with benefit applications/council tax payments and ‘buddying’ support to help with mental health and social isolation. We also supported youngsters with their homeschooling and offered parents support, empowering them to be able to support their children. Since then, we have registered as a CIC and continue to deliver services in the local community.
