About Us
At Impact–Now, our mission is to empower youth and adults within the community by offering training in personal development and skill acquisition. We strive to create meaningful change by equipping individuals with the tools they need to succeed in life.
Our programs focus on teaching participants how to generate income, fostering financial independence and resilience. By providing hands-on training, we help individuals develop marketable skills that can lead to lifelong careers, fulfilling interests, or engaging hobbies. Additionally, we offer tailored guidance and mentorship to boost confidence and performance in academic work. Through our initiatives, we aim to raise self-worth, encouraging self-belief and helping individuals realize their full potential.
Our Food Club is a lifeline for anyone facing hardship. Through an innovative points system, members can purchase essential food staples at a heavily discounted price. This approach provides immediate relief while promoting dignity and choice, ensuring that people can access what they need without stigma.
We are committed to inclusivity and diversity. Our Food Club offers a wide range of food options, including culturally diverse foods specifically tailored to Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities. By catering to diverse dietary preferences and cultural needs, we ensure that everyone has access to familiar, nutritious, and affordable meals.
Impact–Now is dedicated to building stronger, self-sustaining communities where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. We believe that by investing in people, we can create a brighter, more equitable future for all.
