Our Accident & Prevention Handyperson servi￿ continued to help people remain safe in their homes, undertaking all manner of jobs from the straightforward, for example moving furniture, to more complexjobs such as the fitting of grab rails or making stepped entrances more accessible. The service was also involved in a pilot programme supporting people being discharged from hospital, who did not reach the criteria for having formal support from social care agencies. This cohort of patients were at risk of returning to hospital because their homes were not safe to live in. Having a handyperson checking the property beforehand enabled a safer discharge from hospital. We also saw an increase in the number of people accessing our Wellbeing Centre and have an even split of private clients and clients referred by social workers and funded through social care commissioning. Unfortunately funding for our Older Person's Floating Support Service was cut as part of a larger review of funding by Brent Council. Commissioners were required to make savings across all social care provisions. This unfortunately resulted in the closure of the service, making eight members of staff redundanl, which heavily impacted upon our finances for the year. However, we were able to successfully move Clients from the Servi￿ to other provisions and were able to close the seNice without leaving anyone without access to support, As social care funding shifts away from preventative activities to more respite care, we coniinued to seek funding to fill the gap in this style of provision for older people. We were able to provide free weight training classes and managed to continue with ourzumba and Yoga classes. We also partnered with differenl organisations to deliver joint projects that included music and dan activities, and visits to and from local museums. The finance and administration team of Elders Voice ensured that our finances were diligently managed. Financial stability and good governance ensured that Elders Voice maintained its viability in times of uncertainty and change, while making the organisation more agile and resourceful in reacting to ever changing circumstances. Elders Voice is an organisation that prevails in difficult times due to the dedication and creative approach of staff, volunteers and Trustees. We will continue to campaign for a more collaborative approach to developing better services for older people, leading this narrative with commissioning teams, local politicians, and local Social Care teams.

INVESTMENT POLICY Elders Voice's funds are split be￿een two British banks- Unity Trust Bank and Redwood Bank, and our investments are covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. RISK MANAGEMENT Elders Voice's Trustees, the Finance Manager and CEO regularly review the risks the charity is exposed to. We undertake regular risk assessment5 of our services and activities, All identifiable risks have been examined and the appropriate systems. procedures and training have been established to minimize these risks and their impact on the charity. should the risk materialise. To mitigate the effect of disastets, we consistently review our project plans, budgets, project outcomes and policies and procedures at Board Meetings and Senior Management meetings. We employ a specialist support organization, Ellis Whittam, to advise us on our responsibilities regarding health and safety and employment issues. They indemnify us against any legal action provided we follow that advice. The organisation's risk assessment is reviewed annually by the Board of Trustees to identify and undertake new areas of work, income generation and project development. and reposition Ihe charily so that it can operate effectively at a time ofconlinued reduced public funding and changes to areas of Service delivery. ACHIEVEIVIENT AND PERFORMANCE Handyperson Servlce. Elders Voice continues to support people to maintain their independence within their own homes. The service is funded by Brent Council and this year the team completed over 800 jobs. These ranged from fitting handrails, replacing kitchen and bathroom taps, draught proofing, repairing curtain rails, rebuilding front doorsteps, fitting shelves, and decommissioning redundant security fittings. Each job, however small, makes living at home for an older person, safer, more accessible and more enjoyable. Elders Voice Re ort of the Trustees for the ear ended 31 March 2024 With 300 households supported this year, the Servi￿ conb'nues to be popular and much cherished. Funding from Independent Age for our Handyperson Advice Service ended in November. However, the National Lottery were able to step in to provide a further three months funding to continue the seNice to the end of the year. This meant that in total over 350 people received information, advice on saving money, with eligibility checks offered, to see if they were able to claim support from Ihe government or social services. We are adding value to the handyperson contract with several social impact activities, including hosting events so older people could have more access to local democratic processes and be involved in co-creation actiwties. We also run an annual 'Open Day, which provides advice around home safety and security, with specialist advice from the local police and fire services. In partnership with Age UK Harrow, Hillingdon and Brent, the Handyperson team ran a small pilot to test the effectiveness of a service that supported the hospital discharge of older people, focusing on older people that were not eligible for support through the NHS hospital discharge programmes. The results showed that having a handyperson available to facilitate returning home, moving furniture, checking kitchen appliances and in one case clearing broken glass from a kitchen floor, made a substantial difference to the person's positive experience of being discharged. It also uncovered a huge gap in the perception by clinical and social care teams as to who may need support leaving hospital compared with the actual number of older people thal would benefit from a formal supported discharge prO￿ss. Every safe disGharge reduces the potential for the person to return to hospital. Oldér Person's Floating Support After seven years of providing housing support for older people the funding for this specialist service was withdrawn. Elders Voice had already decided not to retender for the contract as initially the local authority had proposed a lower contract value. which would have been, in Elders Voices view, too little to be able to maintain a qualily service. As Brent was unable to find a replacement contractor, the decision was made within the council to end the seNice. Wellbeing Centre. We are continuing with our ambition to develop our Wellbeing Centre into a vibrant community centre. We were successful in applying for several grants to develop different activities which we offer up lo the local community. Warmer rooms initiative Funded by The Kingsbury Charity to support local residents affected by the cost-of-living crisis we opened up part of our Wellbeing Centre as a wam spa￿, where people could use the spa to have a hot drink, socialise with other people and also take part in some of the Wellbeing Centre activities. Generations t ether A successful application through The NCIL participatory grant making process, where local residents allocate grants to local and national charities. Elders Voice pitched for funding to work with our partners LEAP GIC and Princess Frederica Primary School to co-create intergenerational spaces, where different generations can come togelher and learn from each other. These projects increase all participants, self-esteem and break the CyGle of loneliness and isolation. Elders Voice Re ort of the Trustees for the ear ended 31 March 2024 Back to Movement Funding from Track Academy supported exercise classes, and also explored competitive sports with our centre clients. including football, volleyball, and table lennis. As we get older and even if we acquire long term health conditions. our competitive streak remains. The Back to Movement programme keeps that spirit alive in accessible ways. The funding also supported preventive exercise programmes including.. Our Zumba Gold group that brings people together to participate in loud, high-energy dance and exercise activities. The group also meets to scKialise, celebrate birthdays, and has an active ￿atsApp group to keep in touch and check up on each other's wellbeing. For the less agile. and those seeking quieter spaTrs, the Yoga group meet weekly lo take part in chair-based Yoga. This is a safe space for people to relax and explore their own spirituality, while maintaining flexibility, core strength and mental wellbeing Wemble wei hts Funded by the Wembley National Stadium Trust, we introduced our clients to weight training as 2 way of maintaining fitness. as well as building strength and balance to reduce the impact of falls. Group and individual sessions were available. This has proved to be very popular, and sessions are always well attended. Care ivers talkin circle Bringing carers of older people together lo explore care giving issues in depth, the talking circle enabled carer5 to share their experiences, knowledge, and opinions in an atmosphere of exploration and collaboration. We explored the barriers that statutory services put irÈ place that create problems for a family carer. These discussions will be used as a starting point for a potential new service focused on care givers wellbeing. Ukulele at Elders Voice Mainly self-funded, a small group of budding musicians are meeting weekly to learn to play the ukulele. Reminiscence Service Funded by a grant from Brent Health Matters, via another participatory grant process, we worked in residential homes, the Bhakti Dharma centre and Len Williams Court, helping residents living with dementia to use their five senses to untap past memories. A Life with Brands In partnership with the Museum of Brands participants take a nostalgicjourney through 200 years of consumer culture, triggering memories that lead to reminiscence and slorytelling. Elders erformin A small troop of older people explored the concept of journeys, in spoken word, poetry and song. This was a co-produced production, starting with workshops that explored the key themes of what a performance could be, developed these themes into a single idea, then wrote and produced a one hour show that was perfomed to an invited audience at our day centre. Elders Voice Re ort of the Trustees for the ear ended 31 March 2024 Raising awareness and challenging stigma ueens Park Elders Voice took its yearly pla￿ at the Queens Park Festival. This year's theme was remembering people we love. We asked people attending the festival lo write the name of an older person and why they loved them on a paper leaf. The leaf then joined other leaves to become a tree of remembering. Newsletter Elders Voice continued to promote the inclusion ofolder people in day-to-day community life. Our quarterly newsletter is sent out to our members, fundraisers, local politicians, 2nd commissioning teams. The newsletter provides a range ofarticles to challenge the stigma ofaging, gives practical tips and includes quizzes, learning opportunities while also highlighting local services and community events. Blenheim Triathlon Our Iriathlon team compeled in the annual Blenheim Triathlon competition alongside a number of local athletes, under the collective name of Kensal Tri. Under the banner of "making aging a worthwhile journey" the team helped promote Elders Voice's charitable objectives to a new audience while also fundraising. Social rescribin Elders Vcice was invited by Brent Public Health lo look at ways that social prescribing could be delivered outside of GP surgeries. There are many communities in Brent that are not engaged with NHS seNices, including not being registered with local GPS. It was recognised that organlsations like Elders Voice provided informal guidance and advice to many people in their local community. The task was to find ways that could tap into the knowledge of grass roots organisations. Da ortunities Elders Voice has been working with social care commissioning teams to look at how placements to day opportunities can be made more efficient and effeclive. Elders Voice has also facilitated discussions around the provision of council funded transport, an area idenlified as problematic when it came to getting people from their homes to day centre provisions. staff and volunteers Elders Voice 18 aculely aware of the continued commitment from staff, volunteers, and Trustees.
