It is with immense pleasure and great pride that we share a significant development in our journey. The Africa Community in Surrey & Sussex, known to all as ACISS, has now been formally registered as a Community Interest Company.
This transition represents far more than a simple administrative change; it is a profound affirmation of our founding principles. By adopting the Community Interest Company structure, we have legally embedded our core mission into the very fabric of our organisation: to operate solely for the benefit of our community rather than for private gain.
This step reinforces our enduring promise to you, our members, partners, and friends, of unwavering transparency, clear social purpose, and a dedicated focus on creating a lasting, positive impact for all those we have the privilege to serve.
This achievement is not ours alone. It is a direct reflection of the hard work, boundless trust, and steadfast support of every individual who has been part of our story thus far: our devoted members, incredible volunteers, and invaluable partners. This new chapter empowers us to strengthen our existing programmes, explore new avenues for service, and continue our essential work in fostering a truly vibrant, integrated, and supportive community for everyone.
Thank you for being the heart of ACISS. You are the reason we strive to grow and evolve. We raise a glass to this new chapter, and we look forward to building upon this stronger, more structured foundation to serve you better than ever before.
With warmest regards,
The Africa Community in Surrey & Sussex C.I.C.
