Empowering-Communities.org

Empowering-Communities.org are a not-for-profit social enterprise whose aim is to help and empower victims, communities, vulnerable people and their families. We specialise in maximising citizen participation to solve community problems.

As a not-for-profit organisation we proudly plough all of our resources back in to the development of existing projects, products & services and new initiatives.

Empowering-Communities.org was established in May 2007 and our first project was to introduce a National Self Exclusion scheme for problem gamblers. The 'Count Me Out' Gambling Self Exclusion scheme went live in August 2007 and since then we have developed the only independent, international self exclusion database for problem gamblers who use the internet to gamble.

In 2008 we developed and launched the first ever community based Alcohol Self Exclusion scheme. The 'Count Me Out' schemes provide effective self exclusion which empowers the vulnerable and their families to improve their lives and participate more fully in society

To help local communities tackle crime, disorder, anti-social behaviour and environmental issues such as fly tipping and graffiti we have developed and introduced SIRCS (Secure Incident Reporting & Community Engagement System).

SIRCS will revolutionise crime management and incident reporting. It creates online communities and as a social action network it helps communities tackle environmental issues, crime and anti-social behaviour.

SIRCS motivates and empowers communities, individuals, businesses, partnerships and organisations to take an active part in reducing crime in their local area and in making their community safer. SIRCS is an effective tool to help with Neighbourhood policing and helps increase collaborative working between communities and partner agencies.

Thank you for taking the time to look at our website.
