## HUTS AGM 2022/2023 

HUTS has slowly returned to normal.  However many members remain nervous and find it difficult to return to visiting the workshop.  With mounting running costs, it was a sensible decision by all Trustees to re-open for three days a week, whilst continuing with the Call and Chat and Befriending services, which remain to have a positive impact on our members. 

As life and services returned to normal, staff and trustees were able to concentrate on issues such as funding, monitoring etc.  My thanks goes to Al and Mo for their continuing endeavours in  finding  funding.  Thank  you both  for  all  your  hard  work. The  HR  team  held  evaluation meetings with staff, which staff had the opportunity to voice concerns and opinions which have been dealt with accordingly.  Thank you Nancy for all your support during the meetings. 

During the year, Sally the manager decided to resign from her post.  May I take this opportunity to thank her for all her hard work during her time at HUTS.  As Sally had resigned, we as trustees  faced  a  dilemma  and  decided  that  the  trustees  would  be  responsible  for  the management of HUTS with the willing assistance of the staff. We work well together to ensure that HUTS continues to serve our members and the local community. 

Kathryn continues with her Befriending duties and Steve works tirelessly to support all aspects of  HUTS. Let’s not forget Sarah, our admin, who always strives to complete admin tasks effectively for the organisation. A huge thank you to the three of you. 

Having shared questionnaires with members, HUTS applied for a Dr Dewi Davies Endowment Fund  and our  application  was  successful.  Feedback  from  workshops  to date  have been inspiring and members have expressed the positive impact on their mental health.  Recently HUTS also heard that funding had been agreed from Hywel Dda University Health Board to sustain established workshops.  Our thanks and gratitude for funding goes to.Chris Baker from BLF and for the advice and guidance from Angie at WWAMH.  Thank you all. 

None of the above would be possible without the talented and hardworking staff, thank you all for your commitment to HUTS.  We have recently appointed a new member of staff to the workshop - Sarah Frankish. May I extend her a warm welcome, Croeso. 

In August we held a very productive Open Day which was opened by our local MP, Mr Ben Lake, who delivered a very purposeful speech. New and old faces attended. May I take this opportunity to thank the staff, volunteers and members for creating a lovely atmosphere and ensuring the day’s success. 

Finally, it is my pleasure to welcome three new trustees to the board.  I’m sure that we are encouraged to welcome you all to HUTS.  I would personally like to express my gratitude and thanks to my fellow trustees, for their support during the last year, to all the staff, members, volunteers and donors for their commitment in ensuring HUTS continues to support and serve the local community.
