Social Wellness Awareness Project

UWA supports women from minority communities to understand and manage social well-being issues around them. Its focus is to support single women, single mothers and single fathers who are destitute, deprived, and underprivileged aims to reduce the emotional health that would impact the children and limit the capacity to flourish in their lives.

UWA advocates and addresses social isolation, social well-being, social hardship. Provides targeted information and awareness, education, and looking for entrepreneurs’ opportunities for women to build their financial capacity, better their lives, and meet their dream. The outcome of our vision is to see LOVE flourishing within single-handed families and bring positive social images to the children.

The social wellness awareness project was funded by South Yorkshire Community Foundation for one year. With this grant, UWA reached out to numbers of single mothers, women, and single fathers in need and deprived. Indeed, the requirements are outstanding because many women still lack essential social awareness and education to overcome social wellness issues. Given the challenges of Covid-19, most of underprivileged families experienced several social barriers, especially in meeting their basic needs.
