About.

"In a world where inequality and indifference can be overwhelming, I believe in the power of community and the strength of collective action. At WO Consultancy, we're not just building programs; we're nurturing hope, fostering resilience, and empowering individuals to be the architects of their own future. Together, we can create a tapestry of change, woven with the threads of empathy, understanding, and unwavering commitment to social equity."

Hello, I'm Williamz Omope, the heart and soul behind WO Consultancy. With over 18 years of rich experience in local authority community engagement, youth work, academic and public health, my journey has been driven by a deep-seated passion for fostering community engagement and addressing social inequalities.

My background and hands-on experience in these fields have shaped my understanding of the complexities and nuances of community work.

At WO Consultancy, we don't just address issues; we immerse ourselves in the community's fabric, understanding its unique needs and aspirations. My vision has always been to create an inclusive, supportive, and empowering environment for all, especially those who feel marginalised or overlooked.

Our Initiatives: Engaging and Empowering Communities.

At the heart of our mission, we aim to address inequalities in five key areas, using our expertise to design and facilitate innovative projects and schemes. These initiatives bring together communities and individuals from various backgrounds to create positive change:

  1. Employability Support: We are committed to fostering professional growth and entrepreneurial success through targeted support and resources. Our initiatives include professional development workshops, mentorship opportunities, and startup guidance, all designed to enhance employability and stimulate economic empowerment. By providing the necessary tools and knowledge, we aim to break down barriers to career advancement and business creation, ensuring equitable access to opportunities for all in our community.

  2. Access to Health Messages and Tackling Barriers to Accessing Services: Through health education workshops and campaigns, we work to increase awareness and accessibility of health services, addressing the barriers that prevent equitable health access.

  3. Equitable Access to the Creative Arts: We believe in the transformative power of the arts. Our programs in art, music, and culture provide a platform for creative expression and cultural participation, ensuring that these experiences are accessible to all.

  4. Digital Inclusion: In today's digital age, being tech-savvy is crucial. We bridge the digital divide with workshops focusing on computer literacy, internet safety, and harnessing technology for personal and professional growth.

  5. Supporting Hard-to-Reach Youth & Youth at Risk of Youth Violence: Recognising the unique challenges faced by young people, especially those at risk of youth violence, we engage in targeted initiatives. These include mentorship programs, life skills workshops, and community involvement projects, all aimed at empowering young people to achieve their potential and positively contribute to their communities.

Our approach is holistic and community-centric. By bringing together people from diverse backgrounds, we create a synergy that fosters understanding, collaboration, and lasting positive change.

Together, we're not just addressing social inequalities – we're building a foundation for a more equitable, empowered, and inclusive society.
