Following a period of consultation with staff, Trustees and volunteers, we have adopted 5 UN Sustainable Goals to pursue in our work for the remaining duration of our 5 Year Strategy – this will be kept under review.
By pursuing the targets detailed within each of our Sustainable Development Goals, we do our part to improve lives and generate social impact in our day-to-day activities. We will embed these goals within the design of our projects, creating a unified outcome.

In this special undertaking, our Chair Jesse Gerald is raising money through his photography to fund new borehole wells in remote villages in The Gambia. We celebrate the work of our Board and senior staff internationally to improve local water supply, which will improve the lives of people facing economic hardship and are reliant on subsistence agriculture.

We are proud to run projects catering specifically for women and girls, as well as facilitating the work of female practitioners and creatives. Our health and wellbeing provisions include work on women’s health and equity in everyday life.
We Carry the Light, Capture the Flavour, Inspire Inclusion – Flowing Freedom
Through our work with Housing 21 we are exploring new housing plans, energy solutions and rejuvenation of public spaces to create the change we want to see in our communities. This includes feasibility studies and research and interpretative artworks made possible by our funders.
Climate change, global warming and the increased frequency of extreme weather threatens the fabric of our society and the wellbeing of communities and economies alike. As an existential challenge, we are obligated to take action regardless of the predominantly local focus of our work.
Freedom50 charity bike ride in Bangladesh was one the greatest moments of my life, which I will cherish for as long I live.
I’m delighted to be joining Legacy WM board of trustees both to support the development of a brilliant grass roots organisation in our city, and to connect The Rep with more local communities and learn how we can better serve them through our work as a major city institution.
Clover HR are genuinely pleased to be able to support the work done by Legacy WM. We have been involved with Aftab and his Team for several years and know their tireless efforts directly and positively affect peoples lives everyday.
Riding with the Freedom50 group is amazing, its great company, mostly enjoyable (when it’s not too hilly, but hey, that’s where the best memories are made and where you get the best laughs!). It’s a brilliant way to stay fit, and coupled with charity rides, a great way to raise money for a needy cause.
During my time as a community champion I have participated in the Mason mile as well as holiday play schemes. I also had the honour of partaking in the Freedom50 exhibition, which opened my eyes to the true beauty of my culture. It has not only boosted my confidence, but it has also allowed me to feel more connected to the community around me.
Legacy WM is committed to creating a diverse environment reflecting the communities in which we work. We are proud to be an equal opportunity employer where all job applicants will be considered for employment irrespective of our differences.
The values and beliefs at Legacy WM enable our employees to bring their full self to work, develop their potential and engage in a world full of inclusion.
