AGM 2020
The Yemeni Community Association in Sandwell are pleased to present to its members and the community our Annual General Report for 2019-2020.
We have had an excellent year delivering vital services to the community and extending our reach through our innovative language and employability programmes, wellbeing workshops, advice and advocacy services and to the youth as all programmes have gone strength to strength despite facing challenges in an uncertain economic climate.
We continue to surpass our targets and have further built long lasting relationships with key stakeholders to offer support and guidance to our colleagues across the borough, to our staff and the community.
The YCA are proud to continue serving the most vulnerable and our programmes are continuously reflecting the needs of marginalised and hard to reach communities across Sandwell as we improve all our programmes, focus on user experience and share best practice across the sector.
We pride ourselves in doing the best we can for our young people and the community.
We look forward to seeing you on ZOOM on the 27 Feb at 3.00pm for the Annual General Meeting
