Impact Reports

HNG Cloudsley 2024 Reports _FV by jacqueline richardson

 

COVID-19 Response - the first 6 months - download here

Holloway Neighbourhood Group's COVID-19 response - how we supported Islington residents during the first six months of the pandemic. 

 

Men's Social Group - download here

We established the HNG Older Men’s Social Group because men are under-represented as participants in our activities. Men are also traditionally less likely than women to have strong social networks and they are unlikely to admit that they are lonely and typically do not ask for help. 

This report looks at how the group improved the health & wellbeing of men over 55 and the impact on reducing their social isolation. 
 

 

Community Research - HNG, MEWSO and TKCWWG - download here

MEWSO, TKCWWG and HNG work in partnership through their membership of the Finsbury Park Women’s Groups Network. This is a network of community groups serving women in the Finsbury Park area that has meets regularly. It promotes joint working through delivery of services such as community cohesion events and ESOL classes.
 
This report presents the findings of a community research project carried out by MEWSO, TKCWWG and HNG aimed at understanding local communities’ experiences and views of health services in Islington.

The Zoom creative writing sessions have been great for me in lockdown, especially as I am shielding. Oriana sends us very comprehensive and interesting worksheets so we can prepare beforehand and then read out to each other during the session. It’s so good to connect in this way with fellow writers and get the amazing encouragement from Oriana and members of the group. It has been so good to be challenged creatively during this very difficult time and then share our work with familiar faces. Thank you so much Oriana for being so inspirational and considerate.
