## Carmarthenshire Counselling Service 

Annual Report 2022 for Charity Commission Return 

We have maintained a level of service under Covid restrictions via telephone and virtual counselling and have delivered 1453 sessions during the year, slightly below target number of 1500. 

- We have recruited paid and voluntary counsellors as positions became available and now operate with three paid and nine volunteer Counsellors. 

- Training for Counsellors has continued to be provided during the year albeit still affected by Covid.restrictions 

- Face to face counselling has been reintroduced during the year at two centres 

- Core score assessments have indicated successful treatments and client feedback has endorsed this. 

- Waiting lists have been reduced to more acceptable levels , partly as a result of fewer referrals due to concerns over Covid 

- Carmarthenshire Counselling Service continues to work within the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy 

Reserves held by Carmarthenshire Counselling Service are for 

- a) general purpose use in any area of the budget where funds are needed to support projects at short notice, 

- b) providing administrative and co-ordination support, and volunteer expenses in any gaps in external funding and 

- c) ensuring that further bids can be made as necessary for additional funding, or that the counselling service can be brought to a close should continuing funding cease to be available. 

The level of reserves is monitored by trustees on a regular basis at executive committee meetings.
