ASK started as a participation group, and that when our voices started to be heard. Co-Production is very important to ASK members and we are very much involved in making changes around stigma and discrimination and have been part of the Forum from the beginning. By educating people regularly we can help people from diverse backgrounds to have a better understanding what Mental health is and how to take care of their mental health wellbeing and that of their loved ones. We will be continuing to support the Public Health Strategy – 50 Step to a Healthier Borough and move Newham towards the Mental Health friendly borough that Newham is aiming for.

Syed Haque3 years ago The purpose of our project is to address the pressing issue of men's mental health by providing accessible, stigma-free, and evidence-based support through a series of mental health sessions. Our initiative seeks to: Raise Awareness: Increase awareness about the unique challenges that men face in seeking help for mental health issues. Reduce Stigma: Challenge and reduce the stigma associated with men's mental health struggles, encouraging open conversations and help-seeking behaviours. Provide Support: Offer a safe and supportive environment where men can share their experiences and learn practical strategies to manage their mental health effectively. Promote Resilience: Equip men with the skills and resources needed to build resilience, manage stress, and lead healthier lives. In summary, a project focused on mental health can positively impact the local area by improving the well-being of residents, reducing social problems, enhancing the workforce, strengthening community ties, reducing healthcare costs, and making the area more attractive for investment and tourism. These combined effects contribute to the overall growth and development of the local area, making it a better place to live.

Syed Haque3 years ago 1. (Community Safety) we would like to request grant to get pay for First Aid for all our staff and parents. We are working with the community who have under 5's children and it is important to have this training, as it will benefit many families to deal with injuries and at times major accidents. Our staff and community will be knowledgeable and equipped with the skills and tools to deal with emergencies for the children. This will ensure the safety and wellbeing of the children. This also empowers our parents and staff when they are dealing with injuries as they feel reassured knowing how to deal with these kind of situation. Our staff are running play sessions and that will ensure that they are skilled and feel assured that they will be able to deal with accidents/incidents where arises. 2. (Environment and public spaces) we would also like to request a grant for a water dispenser on the ground floor where the children centre is situated. Currently we have no easy process for the community to access water. Parent have to request when required. We have a daily traffic flow of families through our door, as we are an early help Children centre where our community receive support for Domestic violence, early interventions, ESOL classes, Child health clinics, prenatal midwifery surgery, SEND parenting, young parents and children access the children centre from 8:30 to 4:15 Monday to Friday. At times pregnant mothers attend Children centre to see Midwife who require access to water and this can only be reached through staff members. We are a very busy Children centre especially at the reception area as parents waiting for variety of supports and services. So parents have to wait for staff members to bring the water for them. A water dispenser will ensure that the community can access water whenever they want without the need to ask a staff member to bring it from the kitchen.3. (Health and Wellbeing) ZEN garden - a calming effect garden for parents and children to support their mental wellbeing, physical and emotional development. In Newham we have poor and vulnerable families that have no access to outdoor space with play opportunities so the Zen Garden would be amazing for the children's learning and development.4.(Health and Wellbeing) We would like to get grant to buy Sensory equipment’s for both indoor and outdoor like lights, sensory water fountain flow and large garden musical cause and effect resources. We are getting a high number of families that are coming with children with additional needs. Newham has a long waiting list for children to see CDT, OH and SLT. In the interim, families attend the children's centre to attend parenting courses and EPATS sessions whilst children are in the Crèche. These equipment’s can ensure that the children are getting the right intervention with their play as these resources gets their interest up and engage. Children with additional needs require more support in settling into crèche so these sensory resources will ensure that they settle quicker and have their needs met. This will ensure parents attend the EPATS (MENCAP) sessions so that parents are equipped with the right knowledge and skills in managing with their children's needs and behaviour.

Syed Haque3 years ago Street Gym CIC is a true grassroots organisation and the first ever street gym in the entire borough primarily focused on helping the community with its needs. We had seen a gap in the market and filled it effectively to being recognised as a pillar of the community. From the outset, our services have never been funded and this would be our first ever application for funding as we have met to all the requirements of the application. We have subsidised from the start to build this gym by using our only savings that we had. The end result: is a service that has saved thousands of lives and for free. We need help to fix our building and service to meet to the demanding needs of the community - young and old.

Syed Haque3 years ago To support the community in relations to build intergenerational relationships between the young and the older population. This would involve providing support and education around conflict management, learning how to negotiate and increase listening skills through role play.This workshop programme would support residents to work with each other in harmony through role play by bringing in qualified facilitators and practitioners. Through techniques of drama role play participants would explore conflict disagreements and how to diffuse them through creative means.

Syed Haque3 years ago My Idea for my project is to help those with depression, anxiety any form of mental health. There is currently a 9 months waiting list to see a professional for mental health. I want to try and help those with mental health issues. I myself suffer with mental health too. This is to also combat loneliness. A lot of people do not have family nearby. I am calling this Andrea's Group after my friend Andrea who passed away last year.

Syed Haque3 years ago Our project “Thriving Through Hoops” is a comprehensive youth development initiative that combines basketball sessions with one-on-one mentoring to empower and guide young indivduals towards a brighter future. Our primary purpose is to provide a supportive and constructive environment where young people can not only learn basketballs skills but also receive personalized mentorship to navigate life’s challenges and make positive life choices. We are applying for funding becasue we belive in the transformative power of mentorship and sports. Through basketball, we engage with youth on a fundamental level, teaching teamwork, discipline and resilience. However, we recognize that for many young people. the obstacles they face off the court are even more daunting. Our project aims to bridge this gap by pairing each participant with dedicateed mentors who will offer guidance, support, and a safe space for open dialouge. We are committed to providing basketball sessions twice a week, offering a consistent and structured outlet for participants. Furthermore, each participant will receive dedicated mentoring once every two weeks, fostering a deeper, more meaningful connection with their mentor.

Syed Haque3 years ago basketball with a local group. The condition of the basketball court has deturated over the last 5 years and is in poor condition. The court has become hazardous and unsafe for anyone to play in due to the surface of the floor being damaged and uneven. We as a group have had many incidents were we have been hurt badly due to the floor. The court has been negated and needs major repairs to the flooring and the basketball equipment is broken. I have spoken to the parks team about repairing the floor and have been informed that a bid has been put in place with the football foundation who help build multisport areas in local parks. The Football foundation will pay 75% of the project and 25% has to be raised by Newham. My project is to help raise funding to support the development of the project to have a better and safe multisport area for residents. The joined funding would help provide a new floor as well as new basketball hoops and improve the cage surrounding the court.

Syed Haque3 years ago Love Thy Sister is a support group offered to the local community of mothers offering light hearted motivational group sessions bringing unity within our community. Thus unifying our diverse group of mothers, sharing theories and uplifting one another through the general pressures and worries of todays ever evolving world. The group will be held once a week during school hours, for two hours.We will offer light refreshments, also have professional guest speakers once a month and link in all the local services that can be of some to the support group.
