ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable
activities
There are some achievements
to celebrate:
Ithas been a year ofsome firsts, we held:
Our 1st Will and Trust advice evening
held for staff, families, and past families.
Our 1stopen morning
for supporters,
local Councillors,
and businesses.
This gave us an		 opportunity
for
staff to directly demonstrate
their skills and the impact they make through
their teaching.
Our 1st Bounceathon,
a sponsored
fundraising
event held on site for all our children to bounce, hop and
jump.
Our 1stAmazon
wish list was shared
on our social		 media, and it received a huge amount ofsupport. 49
items were purchased,
providing
vital equipment,
and saving expenditure.
Social Media: For a small charity
with no paid marketing		 or communications
position,
Springboard		 has
successfully
increased
its followers across its various social media plafforms.
Time and consideration
have		 been
allocated to the planning
ofour media posts and the messages
conveyed. Positive comments		 are regularly
recewed
with regards to our website. We have seen an		 increase
in support
and donations
directly		 from our new
followers
and their different connections.
Sustainability:
with increased costs from day-to-day
items from utilities to salaries (resulting
from the rise to		 the
National
Minimum
wage), the emphasis
has been on financial evaluation
and management
to		 secure resources
to ensure Springboard
can fulfil its vision and mission. Crucial grant funding
has been successfully		 secured,
some ofwhich have been awarded
over 2 or 3years which helps massively
with financial
planning		 and security.
Larger grants have been awarded
from the Nationwide		 colleague
grant, the Community
Fund,		 and the Gartield
Weston Foundation.
S rin board the chari
rovided:
70placements
(where children over the age of 2 attend		 for up to 5 hours a day without
their parents).
A weekly session for parents
with children aged 2 years		 and under.
Assisted
with some transport costs for families.
Playdates
(stay and play sessions
in non-term
time)
Saturdads
(monthly
Saturday
morning
group for 'Dada'		 and male carers )
Workshops
for
parents
and
other
professionals
on
the
implementation
of Makaton		 and Visuals to aid
communication
Termly Cuppa and Chat sessions for parents
and carers
Impact - what difference does the Service make?
Springboard
offers support
to children
(and their families)
as soon as possible
following
referral,
whether		 it is a
placement
for assessment,
full placement
ora Stay and		 Play group or Playdates,
Saturdads
and workshops.
Staff are encouraged
to think
holistically
and about		 how families
can be supported
beyond		 Springboard with
other agency support.
Lead
practitioners
attend
local
network
and
cluster		 meetings
for transitions.
The manager
attends
the		 Early
Years Reference
Group,
MAF (Multi Agency
Forums),		 is a Governor
for Silverwood
Special School, works		 with
the local authority
on the implementation
of its 0-25		 SEND inclusion
strategy
to ensure		 Springboard remains
professionally
informed
about
the needs
and
intentions
for support.
Staff attend
the
Health		 and
Education
Liaison Meetings
(HELM) to support the wider inclusion		 needs ofmainstream
settings
in North		 Wiltshire.
The
online
learning
journal
and
technology
enables		 greater
participation
from
parents.		 This
gives		 greater
transparency
about the child's Springboard
experiences		 and their developmental
progress.
Springboard
hosts Paediatricians'
clinics, this benefits		 the families as they do not need to travel to appointments
and the child is in a familiar setting.
Springboard
consults
with service users to evaluate
and		 plan provision.
Springboard
puts children
in the centre of all that
it does		 creating a culture ofabdity for children with SEND.
Springboard
uses
self-evaluation
practice
for continuous		 improvement
to plan
good practice		 to promote the positive
outcomes for the children.
Spnngboard
invests
in its staff to ensure
that there
is a high
standard
throughout
the team. Staff		 continue to access
training
- we now
have
a staff group
with a range
of higher-level
qualifications
within
the
playroom
and		 the office,
including
an Early Years Post Grad, an MA in Childhood
and		 Youth, Hone Degree, and Foundation Degree.
