CCS is a charity and was established in 1926. Their vision is for: “Vibrant, viable and resilient Somerset communities with healthy, happy people and strong, sustainable enterprises.” To realise this vision, their mission is: “To inspire and enable Somerset’s people, community organisations and enterprises to take action to build vibrant, viable and resilient communities.”
Somerset Diverse Communities is a CCS project that supports Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) communities living in Somerset to grow and flourish. They support individuals with English lessons and home-schooling in the recent pandemic as well as supporting numerous multicultural events and other activities.
They have been funded by SS&L to deliver 21 English courses across Somerset to help people who want to learn English. They run community English lessons, led by friendly knowledgeable tutors who are based in communities and know the difficulties of learning a new language. They help learners to build confidence, improve their English and hopefully progress to take on new challenges.
