About the Women Off to Work Programme

Westway Trust are running a series of upcoming workshops with relevance to the local VCS.

On Monday 30 March, they are holding a workshop on Procurement and Tender to win:

Public procurement represents over £450 billion in annual opportunities.

North Kensington sits within a £520m–£640m public spend ecosystem driven by RBKC, the NHS, the GLA family, and major anchor institutions. This spend shapes local economic outcomes, community wellbeing, and opportunities for SMEs and VCSEs.

Local residents, workers, and students in Notting Dale and North Kensington have the opportunity to take part in a free Community Resilience Training programme.

This training is part of the Notting Dale Future Neighbourhoods Programme and brings together expertise from Groundwork London, Communities Prepared and RBKC. The programme is designed to support people who want to help strengthen their community in the face of climate-related risks such as heatwaves, flooding, and other emergencies.

Charity Film specialists The Saltways have produced a report and a set of guidelines on the use of AI-generated imagery in the charity sector.

AI-generated content risks re-enforcing harmful and inaccurate stereotypes, and create concerns around consent and privacy.

RM Partners NHS Cancer Alliance for north-west and south-west London is offering up to £500 to local community and voluntary groups to deliver a one-off session focusing on the HPV Vaccine. They are specifically looking for applications from organisations that work with either: 

• faith based communities or  
• young people aged 11-19  

This voluntary survey is part of a project to better understand the health, wellbeing, and everyday experiences of LGBTQIA+ people in Kensington and Chelsea and Westminster.

It is being carried out as part of a Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) - a process used by local councils and health partners to plan and improve services based on what local communities need.

By taking part, you’ll help highlight what is working well, where there may be gaps, and how support for LGBTQIA+ people can be improved.

The Champions Programme operates across Kensington and Chelsea (RBKC) and Westminster (WCC), with 11 Community Champions (CC) projects – six in RBKC and five in WCC – and two Maternity Champions (MC) borough leads supporting Maternity Champions work within each Champions project.
