MENTORING
Mentoring has been diff￿ul1 lo arrarYJe this 5e8r due to l1xkd￿1ffl and fvrther restriclions due to
travel and boundaries. A few matches have taken place and they have mel vknen it has been safe to
do so. We have a few vrdiling lo siart Iheir mentoring relationships when lockdown end$. Our wailing

Once again due lo Covid-19 we have not been able to recruit new volunteers throughcAJl lockdown.
Since then five of our previous vdunteers have relumed a￿1 we have had a number of new enquiries
from individuals. schools and other voluntary organisations for volunteer placements.
Youth Wofk
Our Chlldren In Need small grant suppcwts children from the age of 8-18 in a group setting. These
children are from families where there is a famity member 7Mth a disability and is meant lo give them
lime for themselves. With the pandemic most of the work this yEar has taken place on Zoom meetings.
however Staff have delNered aetivty packs lo the Y￿n9 people homes i.e, CLY)kery packs , art and
craft packs, themed packs, quizzes, card bing) el¢. Feedback has been gcrt)d txjl we have identrfied
some children thal have needed more one to one ts.me so Ihis was in addition lo the youth club
sessions.
Community Foundation Wales youth dub was for chldren both" with disabilities and without and
SUPPOrted inclusion. Some children from our mentoring prryJramme attended these sessions prior lo
lockdown. During lockdown zoom meetings were used to engage the young people weekly. Breakout
rLK*ms were available for the more anxious ￿)Ung people to have one lo one meetings Mth the youth
workers. Not all young people were wantsng or able lo attend every week if IT equipment was limited at
home due to othe rs needing to use it.
BBC GIN large grant provKles 8-16 year olds v*ith the opkx)rtunity lo engage with others in a youth work

The Zone Projects
Covid-19 had a great impacl on the activities in the z￿e. From mid March staff were furloughed unlil
August 2020. Some groups returned but others Iparticularty Ihe eldedy) didn't due lo shielding. There
was a window of opportunity August and mid December when our service users returned
under social distancing and safe opening guidanee. Risk assessments were done and PPE pul in
place. Staff were very creative in provmjing activrft￿ for all age groups vithin the centre and for those
that were unable to attend.
Collaboratlve worklng
Collaborative working was drastscally reduced this past year due lo the Covhd-19 restrictions and
lockdown periods. However a certain amcmjnt was either face to face or emaivlelephone. We have
maintained relationships wrth our foLNJ share providers. I￿1 PCSO'S grant funders and BAVO.
Through our food distribution programme we have worked in coslatmation wilh the Food bank as they
donated food iterns lo us over the Christrnas peric4J when staff volunteered their lime lo open the Zone
lo support people bmlh food parcds. We have also made nè•V contacts with indr¥iduals and small local
groups who have riiade fo(MJ donations. i.e Buddy group
Fundraislng
Apart from Local giving and SAS Inlernalional who have supported us throu￿ their Amazon Smile we
have had no fundraising even15 {Covid-19 prevented us doing anything).
Additional meth<)ds of Income
Fundraising has been impossible during the pandem￿ y￿th the various lockdowns and the social
distancing making it difficult lo have any people in at any gNen time. We also lost out on room
b¢xJkings ￿th everyone working from home and no 50cialiing alkjwed.
The room t￿OkIngs/rentsls usually ensure that Ihe ZonelBridg8 can continue lo remain open as the
rinancial revenue that is obtained frorn these t￿kingS help to keep the Zone financially supported
ensuring suslainabilily of our seNice on a daily basis. We have only had one enquiry for this year
(2021) bul are hoping that when festrictrons are eased we be having a few more.
The coffee shop takings were grealy reduced as we were restricted as lo the number of people able to
use the facili(ies during the times we we a￿e to open safely.
