Giving Back to the Community
The greatest thing about supporting SCCYC Enterprises is that all profits are dedicated towards supporting Food Aid which currently supports approx. 300 poverty disadvantaged and vulnerable people in the Town.
Social Enterprise to Support Social Impact Services
The Sikh Community Centre & Youth Club (SCCYC Waterside Connect) has been leading the way since March 2020 providing critical support for up to 500 vulnerable people per week that have been detrimentally impacted by the pandemic; and over 5,000 units of additional support has been provided, including emergency food, resourcing, and welfare support.
“With increasing energy and mortgage costs, the impact on families and individuals within the town is forcing more and more people into extreme hardship. In addition, this is creating additional pressures to our poverty service and Centre sustainability. These new social enterprises will help mitigate the financial impact as well as provide employability, affordable hire facilities and fill in a gap of locally produced, healthy authentic food for local communities.”
Harjinder Kooner, Chair.
