Activity Time
This year has seen the biggest ever changes to our activity programme due to Covid 19. There have been 3 full lockdowns and local restrictions regarding when people should meet. and how services could be delivered.
This year also meant social isolation for some of our members as they self isolated for their own health needs and to safeguard their families. Some members were also instructed under government rules to shield at home and not go out to work, shop or socialise.
Staff were also governed by these rules meaning a work from home rule was established to enable the work to continue.
The impact of Covid
Initial contacts with funders assured us that funding would still be in place and could be delegated to other areas of support.
New services including telephone ring around support, weekly Zoom interactive activity sessions, Social media activity groups have been developed. Door step drop of support and arts and crafts packs delivered to homes were also part the main focus this year.
Additional time was allocated to support members, ensuing they had all the necessities they required such as food, shopping, access to medication and to wellbeing services,
