Aleeza Rizvi- Project Coordinator
My name is Aleeza Rizvi and I have been involved in the project for many years. I am thrilled Freehold Community Group has continued to serve the community thirteen years after we were established.
As a Project Co-ordinator I am always looking for new ways to improve our services. I have introduced a wide range of community activities and am currently working on many new initiatives. My staff members and our community volunteers do their best to serve the Freehold residents.
We always plan our activities with the help and suggestions of the commuity and we encourage all to get involved in the planning and delivery of our services. All ideas and suggestions enable us to improve the community. It also enables us to work towards improving the quality of life in Freehold and other neighbouring areas.
It is vital for everyone at the Freehold Community Group to work closely with all members of the community. We are currently running activities which suit the needs of children, young people and others in the community.

I have been working for Freehold Community Group since January 2013 and have loved the experience. The work which the Group delivers has greatly benefitted the local residence over the last few years and the area has seen dramatic improvements with regards to safety and a safer environment for all the people of Freehold regardless of age, race, culture, education, religion and social background.
