Our impact

Our year in numbers

Learning English is vitally important to the capabilities and integration of LEAH clients. Having limited English can impact access vital services, including housing, education, health care and to find sustainable work. We enable clients to gain confidence, develop support networks, access services for themselves and their children and make their first steps towards college, volunteering and employment. Our work changes people's lives; empowering people to discover and take opportunities to actively integrate and participate in their local communities.

Read our Theory of Change to find out what is causing the problems many people with limited English and barriers to accessing formal education face, our impact goal, the mechanisms by which we engage with LEAH clients and the short, medium and long term outcomes LEAH clients achieve.
