Socialisation opportunity
Medway Plus is a registered charity providing outreach work mostly in disadvantaged communities in Medway. Their focus is on tackling isolation and depravation, working with ethnic minorities, regenerating local green spaces, mental health initiatives and education around healthy living. Medway Plus has used the Watersports Centre on a few occasions providing activities for those with special needs and minority groups.
Funding was awarded to support the elderly and to tackle those feeling isolated on St. Mary’s Island and Brompton neighbourhoods.
The funding went towards socialising sessions at St. Mary’s Island Community Centre and Second Chance at Brompton.
Overall c. 140-160 people benefitted from this project split between St. Mary’s Island (80-90 persons) and Brompton (60-70 persons).
