A key strand of the Leidos UK Logistics strategy is a commitment to community activities, by actively supporting local people and programmes. 

 

Cintre

Cintre is a dynamic support service tailored to adults with Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASD), learning difficulties and mental health issues.

Cintre was set up primarily to help young adults take the next step towards living independently with a support package personally designed to suit their individual needs.

Leidos staff helped create a sensory garden for the residents, moving over 9.5 tonne of stone to create a path through the garden and painting over 150 meters of fencing.

Helping Homeless Believe

Helping Homeless Believe are a grassroots charity which is currently 100% volunteer led. They offer a weekly outreach service, providing hot and cold meals, drinks, toiletries along with a whole host of other items to help the homeless community. They also offer one to one advocacy support to a core group of service users and have recently secured premises where they will be able to allow services users to shower, wash clothing and have a warm drink and chat, away from the chaos that comes with living on the streets.

Leidos is supporting the charity with weekly outreach costs such as; purchasing snacks and toiletries to make up the packs handed out and purchasing ingredients for volunteer chefs to continue to make warm meals. Leidos will also support survival packs, these includes a rucksack, sleeping bag, thermal underwear, hats, scarves and gloves.

Humanitarian Bristol

Humanitarian Bristol was created in response to the COVID-19 crisis in March 2020. The purpose of Humanitarian Bristol is to provide a partnership based, holistically connected approach to support extremely vulnerable people. Vulnerability in this context could be socio-economic, cultural, age, or because of shielding or self-isolation due to a range of issues that conform to the local authority, government, and health guidelines. Service provision would include a supply of colourful food boxes, 1 -1 emotional/mental wellbeing support and signposting to relevant agencies for help.

Leidos is supporting the production of culturally appropriate and generic recipes in video format whereby vulnerable people would be able to create healthy and nutritious food using the items supplied by food banks.
