AOK: Helping those in need, hardship or distress
ABOUT US
The aim of AOK is to alleviate hunger and poverty in our local community. We provide food and good quality clothing to those in need.
We believe that people who are homeless and or socially excluded have something to offer. AOK would encourage people to use their skills to help themselves and others bringing a sense of purpose to their lives. Training and work experience are available for those who are unemployed, ex-offenders and others who need to develop their employability skill.
We work closely with other organisations in the area to support those in need, hardship or distress, specifically the unemployed , ex-offenders and in need to develop self respect by offering training and employment experience.
We are committed to developing an organisational culture which values people from all sections of the community and to developing the contribution each individual can make to our work.
It is our intention to ensure that our policies and procedures meet the best practice guidelines in relation to equality and of opportunity and diversity.
