This project would support WATCH to develop a sustainable business plan that fulfils the needs of residents and redevelopment of the neighbourhood. The project will support WATCH to develop a more strategic alliance with local organisations and agencies and map out details of other projects and services available in the area. This will help to reduce duplication of projects and services and create new partnerships opportunities among agencies and residents groups and provide sustainable projects and services that will address issues and improve the social and economic lives of people living and working in Hillfields. Reviewing and developing the charities infrastructure will grow the day to day business of the organisation to coincide with the many changes occurring within the voluntary and public sector and encompass new initiatives for Coventry as the City of Culture in 2021. Through consultation and feedback from 85 service users, residents and local businesses they feel this project is needed to ensure the long term sustainability of this much needed support for the local community. Eight residents and three members of WATCH charity have agreed to take up roles as champion volunteers, and participate in the activities of the project. This will also creating a platform to share knowledge, expertise and experiences to ensure best practice and a joined up people centred approach is developed and implemented through community engagement.

WATCH would like to deliver ESOL workshops for Adults who speak English as a second language including BAMEs, refugees, asylum seekers, and migrant workers from EE countries who have settled in Hillfields, Coventry a neighbourhood of high deprivation. We would also like to deliver introduction to Radio activity-based group work sessions through our Community Radio project HillzFM, supporting young people age 16-29 who are NEET (not in employment, education or training) and may be at risk of becoming radicalised by far right groups operating in the local area such as Daesh, English Defence League and other Far Right Groups including Eastern European Nationalist Groups. The project will support 65 vulnerable young people and adults from BAME community groups who are too often disempowered but want to oppose those seeking to divide our communities and cause great harm. Workshop activities and content will tackle prejudice, discrimination and stereotypes that promote hatred towards others and activity to counter known local extremism. To achieve the outcomes of BSBT and reduce preconceived attitudes, beliefs and feelings that appose shared values each participant will receive up to 24 hours of targeted and guided learning support. Group activities will encourage residents to stand together to challenge extremist narratives and build a stronger, united and resilient community. Other activities will include employment and well-being support from our experienced advisors through 1-1 information, advice and guidance (IAG) and group based activities helping participants to get a job or into training. WATCH has supported thousands of marginalised individuals into work or training creating positive life changing benefits. Recent studies suggest that individuals actively looking for work are less likely to engage or become involved with extremist movements in contrast to the 30% who are more likely to be vulnerable to extremist messaging when disengaged from job search activities.
