E.A.S.E. (Empowering Action & Social Esteem) Ltd has a proud history. Since 2001, our community services and activities have provided high quality support to families and individuals living in Hanwell. It is from this strong foundation that we understand the challenges facing our community and the local population as a whole.
Why the community needs us
E.A.S.E. is an essential lifeline to vulnerable families and individuals in the community. Knowing the extent of the complex issues our community faces, we believe we are privileged to be trusted by local residents, and so feel we must use our local knowledge, expertise and resources to help more people by giving them the individual and community support and guidance they need.
E.A.S.E. has always sought to respond to the immediate and underlying problems faced by our community. The problems we face have gained in significance in recent years and have been exacerbated by COVID- 19 and the cost of living crisis. This has created new challenges that are emerging which places added strain on the community's resilience.
We believe that giving the emotional and practical help needed at the earliest possible point increases everyone's ability to improve their and/or their families life circumstances.
We provide services and projects for individuals and families to:
1. Increase personal skills and improve life circumstances
2. Reduce isolation
3. Increase community cohesion
In order to achieve:
Improved self confidence and self esteem
Improved friendships and networks
Improved work and life skills
These feed into our long term outcomes of improved individual, family and community wellbeing that support our social impact of a resilient, united community.
