Swansea MAD are a youth and community organisation passionate about digital inclusion, the arts, social justice and the environment. We make positive changes in our communities, whilst creating high-quality Commercial Services with people who share our values. We support people to be creative and to increase skills, knowledge and accessibility to feel like they belong in their communities.
Why the community needs usDuring these unsettling times, we have focused all time and resources into supporting vulnerable people ranging from feeding our communities to sourcing tablets and dongles so people without access feel connected. We are working with the community to reach people who are falling through the system. Some children in our community do not have food, lots do not have board games or bikes or books or any technology. We think this is unacceptable and therefore fighting for equality for all.
Our impact on the communitySwansea MAD are supporting vulnerable people, with picking up prescriptions, shopping and other errands. We have sourced tablets and internet for children and young people who do not have access. We have paid for top-ups for electricity and gas for young people who are isolated and live alone. We have also provided survival packs for vulnerable people, including basic food stuff and toiletries. We are cooking and delivering hot food and packed lunches to vulnerable children and want to do more!
