Summary ofthe main achievements ofthe charity during the year		It has been another busy year for the Guisborough Bridge Association. As ever we are grateful to all our members, volunteers, churches, local Supermarkets and other organisations including the Town Council and Redcar 8 Cleveland Council for their invaluable support —both practical
		and financial —in helping our small charity to continue to thrive. It is a
		privilege to be able to serve our local community in this way.
		Darlington Building Society made us their charity ofthe year, providing
		both volunteers and donations.
		HSBC have made several donations.
		The Arnold Clark Auto fund gave us a grant to refurbish the room we use
		for Bridge2Parents.
		OddSocks, a local Launderette, supplied some Christmas gifts for us to
		distribute and did wonderful work collecting food for the Christmas
		Hampers and making the present part of the Hampers suitable for the
		recipient family.
		Our Youth Worker, Samantha Burns sadly decided she needed to focus
		on her tattooing business and left us in July 2022. We had to close
		Bridge2Youth for some months as we didn't have enough adults present
		to run it safely. Then two new volunteers came forward so we re-opened
		in December 2022. As yet we have not found a replacement for Sam.
		Our Summer Holiday Club unfortunately had to be cancelled and then it
		became clear that our Tuesday Coffee Morning was no longer raising
		funds for the charity due to low numbers and so we closed that In
		September.
		Joanna, one of our Project Workers, made us aware that it would be
		helpful to develop FoodStop, our food bank, into a Community Shop and
		with the practical help ofthe trustees and the provision of a suitable room by Guisborough Methodist church we started the Shop on 1"December
		2022.
		The project was greatly enhanced by a very generous restricted donation
		that enabled us to purchase a fridge and a freezer.
		We currently have around 35clients.
		Individuals are referred to FoodStop and then if appropriate can join the
		Shop. They pay E3a week to get at least 10items on a points basis.
		They can chose what they buy, thus giving them independence and
		autonomy. They agree to attend weekly and know that ifthey stop
		coming, then after 4 weeks another will take their place from the waiting
		list.
		Following the retirement of our Senior Project Development worker last
		year, our staff have worked extremely hard to maintain the projects listed
		above.
		They were ably supported by Jackie Kielty helping as a volunteer
		administrator up until the successful appointment of a new Manager,
		Lorraine Nash, who started on 31 October 2022.
		Jackie steered us through the unexpected crisis of first our website and
		then our email system going down and helped to streamline some of our
		systems. Lorraine has made an excellent start in her role, bringing
		warmth, experience and consistency to our operation.
		Having been awarded the Queens' Award for Voluntary Service in June
		we then had a presentation ceremony in November 2022 with the Lord-
		Lieutenant of North Yorkshire meetin all our volunteers. We treated our
