•	Collect demographic data in order to understand equality needs (postcode/ethnicity/gender/age etc)
•	Be evaluated with feedback from participants into a report with recommendations for continuation and development of the programme.
•	Develop the programme with sustainability in mind i.e. how it might continue beyond the project end.
