| 2Tshirt Gang |
2tshirtgang, run by Anthony, Trinity & Cleo, is a sports specific training academy based in Bradford. The trio wanted to give the youth in their community access to professional training. They support young clients with aspirations to go on to be a professional in sports, educate them in health and fitness and endeavour to keep them off the streets. 2tshirtgang recognised that health was poor in the community due to lifestyle, lack of education and limited access. Wanting to change this, 5 years ago 2tshirtgang was born. Anthony and best friend Trinity have been training together for a few years. In the past youths and people in the community started to ask if they could train with them. However, their workouts were intense and people began to learn that when they trained with them they needed to bring 2 TSHIRTS to change into, halfway through the workout. This stuck with them as a nickname, and organically grew into the business name! Services offered include: |

In the run up to lunch people catch up with friends or take the opportunity to make new friends. At 12 noon we serve a freshly cooked two course meal. We are happy to adapt or change what is being served in order to cater for specific dietary needs or religious observances but we would appreciate advance notice of this. After lunch there is a time to relax and enjoy a game of dominoes or simply chat with others. Every month there is bingo and at least three times a year the 55 Club committee arrange special outings to the seaside or places of interest. Throughout the year there are invited speakers to talk on various health and lifestyle topics. These sessions are voiced over for hard of hearing people and BSL interpreted for D/deaf people as appropriate.. In the coming months there will also be opportunity for everyone to learn basic first aid. |

| ACORN |
Founded in Bristol in 2014, ACORN is a mass membership organisation and network of low-income people organising for a fairer deal for our communities. The idea is simple but ambitious – to build a national community organisation along the lines of a trade union; organising our communities and fighting for a better quality of life. What began with a few local residents trying to tackle slum housing in their neighbourhood has quickly developed into a national organisation with thousands of members and branches across the country. We think inequality and social problems are about power. We believe that the only way we’ll see meaningful action is if we can counter the power of money and establishment politics with the power of people taking collective action. Everyone has the right to a place at the table and ACORN puts community organisation at the heart of the fight for economic and social justice. Every day we hear the issues facing our communities: rising housing costs, stagnant wages and brutal cuts that have starved our public services. Wealth is being transferred upwards, and the only solution is for people to get organised and win it back. |
