ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable Activities TRUSTEES REPORT YEAR 2023-2024
JUMP and interlink formed the Jewish Health alliance working with Health authorities on Health issues and targets in the London Jewish communities. We are also working to plan further events for the OJ community and other hard to reach communities.
Maternity and beyond health information leaflet -JUMP together with Interlink Foundation and with support from Local Health authorities produced a leaflet of information about essential Health targets, in particular for pregnant moms and babies.
Various immunisation leaflets-JUMP together with Interlink Foundation, Bikur Cholim and Hatzola amongst other charities and bodies produced a leaflet of information, other Health targets and Strep A immunisations. The reason we produced it was to meet a need in the community. Due to religion reasons our families are not on Internet or social media. We know that the reason for the low intake of immunisation is largely due to lack of information. We set out to bring the information in a hard copy in a culturally accepted format. The leaflets went viral within days and requests for copies came from hospitals throughout London and across the country. Many hospitals found the leaflets easy to understand and suitable for other religious groups.
BREASTFEEDING SUPPORT: JUMP together with Beis Brucha and Woodberry Down CC deliver a popular Breastfeeding Drop-in in BB and in Lubavitch CC, the service is once again well attended and immensely popular. JUMP has applied for greater funding from the soon coming FAMILY HUBS project by Hackney to provide additional BF support.
PARENTING GROUPS-JUMP joined Coach Parenting in providing Solihull parenting courses to vulnerable families in the community. The sessions are very well sought after and well attended. Parents feedback is glowing, and we hope to be able to offer it to many more families. JUMP signpost families to this provision.
While supporting families we became aware that many young families find it difficult to purchase essentials. JUMP team earmark small sums of money left over from other projects and we are buying essential supplies at extremely low price from In-kind. We give the goods free of charge for the needy families. JUMP volunteers raised funds amongst family and friends and bought more supplies to give to large families in need.
JUMP continues to incorporate the 'START 4 LIFE' initiative into JUMP's programme. All the families are receiving the 'Start 4 Life' booklets; the main issues are discussed in our sessions as well as other healthy lifestyle issues. JUMP encourage mothers 2 B to take Healthy Start Vitamins and Vitamin D and to give them to her babies.
JUMP antenatal courses focus on encouraging and supporting sustainable breastfeeding. Other focus points are early booking before 10 weeks gestation, hearing tests for new-born and development check-up as well as immunisations in pregnancy and for the children. JUMP antenatal programmes focus on encouraging and supporting mothers to return to work after they had a baby and provide basic information about benefits and other entitlements. JUMP signpost families to the appropriate agencies when needed.
JUMP educates about MENTAL HEALTH in the maternity period and gives culturally appropriate information booklets to parents and parents to be. JUMP also refers and signpost parents to mental health services and/or refer mothers to be to the 'Vulnerable woman Pathway'. JUMP will contribute to CAFF and attend MAT when appropriate.
JUMP achieved wider signposting opportunities with other voluntary and statutory organisations. JUMP refers families to family support organisation and to CC professionals as well as to the mental health team and Health visitors.
JUMP is a member of the "maternity Services" group that joins voluntary organisations dealing with maternity issues and services and the statutory health providers in Homerton Hospital and Hackney that meets regularly. Through this group JUMP achieves wider net working, signposting, and better referral opportunities. JUMP manager is the chair of this forum. JUMP professionals are members of several other health focus groups through its connections with Homerton Hospital and City and Hackney health trust. JUMP manager is a member of the MVP of several trusts. she is also a member of the LABOUR WARD FORUM. Through these posts we can access information for our clients and be active in decisions on changes and actions to do with Maternity services
