We are delighted to share the news that our member organisation, Mahdlo Youth Zone, have successfully achieved Action Together's Quality in Action Award after demonstrating excellence in every category of the award.
The Quality in Action Award is a recognised framework for voluntary, community, faith and social enterprise (VCFSE) organisations working across Oldham, Rochdale and Tameside to prove their impact. The award is an independent, local seal of approval which publicly demonstrates commitment to safeguarding, quality assurance and continuous improvement.
Mahdlo is a registered charity dedicated to young people in Oldham aged 8 to 19 years, and up to 25 for those with a disability. Part of the OnSide Network of Youth Zones, Mahdlo opened its doors in March 2012. As one of the original four myplace funded youth facilities, their mission has always been to provide affordable and fun opportunities that are dedicated to the borough’s young people.
Our Oldham Director, Laura Windsor-Welsh met with Lucy Lees at Mahdlo Youth Zone to present the Quality in Action Award.
