About us

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.

We continue to offer support to members of the local community with benefit applications, general advice and guidance and support with their children’s education as well as support during the cost-of-living crisis. Our aims as an organisation are to support the local community and empower them to make healthy lifestyle changes as well as changes that will benefit their mental health and wellbeing. We organise and deliver activities for people from all backgrounds. Our organisation aims to empower people, to build on their leadership, teamworking and social skills by providing fitness and educational activities to get them more active. We encourage and support people to get together and socialise, bringing the community together to form stronger friendships and connections, providing local communities; young people and parents access to our events and activities to promote positivity.
