We won! Jamila’s Legacy is Social Enterprise of the Year! 💚🏆

To be shortlisted was a big deal. To actually win… what an incredible moment.

We don’t do what we do for awards or recognition. Our purpose has always been about people, communities and making a difference. But it is important sometimes to stop, reflect and celebrate how far we have come.

This award is especially meaningful because Jamila’s Legacy began with Jamila. Her story became the beginning of something that has grown into a community of people supporting, empowering and looking out for one another. This award is in her memory. 💚

I am incredibly proud of our amazing JL family, our directors, dedicated freelancers, fabulous volunteers, our Patron @sulemannagdi , partners, supporters and everyone who has been part of our journey. And above all, the wonderful people we meet and work alongside every day, who trust us, share their stories with us and make Jamila’s Legacy what it is.

A huge thank you to @voluntaryactionleics ,the judges, headline sponsor @hastingsdirectofficial , our category sponsor University of Leicester School of Business, all the sponsors and supporters, and of course the wonderful duo @kevinak007 and @rupalrajani, who hosted the evening and kept us entertained throughout!

There are times when it can feel as though so much around us is falling apart. But every day, through this work, I am reminded that there is still so much kindness, compassion, care and humanity in our communities.

So proud. So grateful. And still taking it all in. 💚🏆

Social Enterprise of the Year!

A great evening of learning, connecting and sharing

Thank you to Currys, St George’s Retail Park for collaborating with Jamila’s Legacy to host our free Technology & Safety Information Evening.

Together we explored how technology can help us stay connected, reduce loneliness and isolation, stay safer at home and online, and make everyday life a little easier.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and got involved, donated refreshments and snacks and a special thank you to Imran Dedat for his support in making the evening possible.

We really value partnerships that bring communities together, increase knowledge and help people feel more confident, informed and connected.

Tomorrow is World Suicide Prevention Day, we’re encouraging everyone to help break the stigma around mental health.

By talking openly, listening without judgement and increasing our knowledge, we can help people feel able to seek support early.

A conversation can make a difference. 💛
