Enrych Oxfordshire have had a satisfactory past 12 months, supporting our members to be able to engage in learning and leisure activities of their choosing and therefore, in many cases, increase confidence, develop independence and reduce loneliness.
Our objective is to support adults with physical disabilities living in the Oxfordshire area and whilst we are aware that some of our members face mental health challenges, our primary role is to support them in relation to their physical disability. As a result of this, we have been able to complete 176 positive outcomes and evaluations with our members, which is an increase on the previous year.
We have also had concerns about some of the referrals we were receiving from certain organisations and the fact that home visits had not been carried out by the referrer, meaning our staff could have potentially been put in a difficult situation. This was not something the Board were prepared to ask them to do, without sufficient safety measures in place. Our main referrers at present continue to be the local authority and professionals in roles such as Occupational Therapists.
Across all of our work, including members, volunteers and wider family and carers, the charity has impacted over 1400 people in the last 12 months, which is really positive and has seen 76 in person events held across Oxfordshire. This could have been through a number of our initiatives including our day trips, social events, online zoom calls, our befriending programme or our annual holiday. We have also been able to start to increase facilitation visits, which is where a member of staff supports a member to attend a club or event to initially see if they enjoy it and then the staff member is able to withdraw the support needed.
Funding continues to be a challenge, and despite receiving a grant from Oxfordshire County Council, which I’m pleased to say has been given again for the current financial year, we still face challenges. As a Board, we will be looking at how we can diversify our income steams in the year ahead and ensure that we are able to continue to offer our services for our members.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our supporters, including volunteers, funders and our staff team for their continuous hard work and support to enable Enrych Oxfordshire to continue to make a positive difference to our members.
