It became a charity community organisation in September 1996 and registered under the number 1064874/0 of the Charity Commission. Our aim is to relieve poverty, sickness and distress amongst immigrants of African descent by providing such persons with free and confidential advice, advocacy, assistance, representation, counselling, translating and interpreting services in matters such as education, employment, health, housing, immigration, money, social security, training, welfare and workfare. Our activities consist in the provision of services on the issues mentioned above. Most of these activities take place at our drop-in office but we also undertake outreach visits to homes, hostels, hospitals, immigration detention centres, etc. Our volunteers provide support to newly arrived asylum seekershelping them to accompany to GPs, social services and the immigration services to provide advocacy and interpretation. We also organise workshops, seminars and mother tongue and supplementary classes. We provide support and counselling to young people who have experienced trauma, atrocities...and now work with partners in the Great Lakes Region as we can deliver activities outside the United Kingdom.

Working Together is a registered charitable company and voluntary organisation situated in the beautiful market town of Ludlow,Shropshire and run by a dedicated team of members, trustees, volunteers and carers. Our aim is to provide a focus for people with learning disabilities and their families. We provide support, training, work opportunities and recreational activities firmly rooted in the local community. We do not seek to replace or compete with existing services. Instead we work with them to promote partnership and enhance provision. We aim to encourage inclusion of people with learning dificulties in all aspects of community life and thereby offer opportunities that are often available only in larger towns. The cafe in the heart of Ludlow is the hub of our activities, many of which take place at other locations. Working Together which was started in July 2002 is founded on kindness, encouragement and mutual respect. The Vision is to develop regular and meaningful work and training opportunities, a range of regular recreational activities and social opportunities. Why the Tortoise logo? The Tortoises were chosen for our logo since the Chinese consider them sacred because of their innate wisdom and protective instinct. Eastern values also teach us that "slow and steady wins the race".
