| Building cohesion between
different groups |

existing tension between different sections of the community, on
behalf of South Warwickshire Housing Association. Escape has built
an approach which delivers integration between different groups,
with different abilities, and this underpins all our participatory
programme.
Escape can undertake integrated work which delivers social outcomes for
people with health and isolation issues, developing skills and
signposting participants on to other qualifications.
