UnLtd Impact report 2018/19

Meet the social entrepreneurs
These are just a selection of the social
entrepreneurs we’ve supported in the last
year, across our programmes.
Kisha Bradley
Kisha founded Bright Box Makerspace, a
mobile makerspace encouraging children to
explore the world through making and playing
in community spaces in Sheffield. With help
from her Do It Award, the #GirlsWithDrills
project is addressing a lack of confidence in
young girls in STEM, aiming to give them the
skills to pursue career paths they otherwise
wouldn’t have considered.

Gail Redmond
Via Wings was set up in 2009 to support
disadvantaged families and vulnerable
individuals in Dromore and its surrounding
areas. Our Thrive support is enabling the
growth of their shop which sells upcycled
furniture, designer pre-owned clothing,
in-house made jewellery and crafts, as well
as a coffee shop serviced by volunteers
who have benefited from their support.

Beatrice Guessie
Beatrice uses her personal story
of loss and injustice as an asylum
seeker to influence organisations
and government to change policy
and practice to ensure what
happened to her doesn’t happen
again. She works with women
who have faced domestic violence,
poverty and hardships. A Do It
Award helped her progress this
work, and in the process build a
family of women who support it.
