ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Review of the financial period We t(K)k over the management of Westcliff Communty Centre in April 2022. We have maintsined our support to the community by continuing to provide the activities already available in the Centre and increased actlvities as V￿11 as seeing an uptake of our room hire both to communlty memtErs and other organisations. As a result of tsking over from a Communty Awiab'on VR thanged our legal entity from a Registered Charity and Company Ltd by Guarantee to become an associated Charitable Incorpornted Organisation. We changed our name in July 2024 to Westcliff Community Drop-In Centre as voted by our members at our AGM. What we will be doing over the nextyear: Our Ways to Wellness projett, funded by Blg Lottery from Aprtl 2017 ended in April 2022. We have been very lucty to secure further fijnding from the Lottery for another three years from january 2023 to January 2026. The aims of the current project IS Still to recrult Volunteer Buddies (Mentors) to connect wth members of the community who may feel isolated for any number of reasons e.g., bereavement, illness, loneliness etc who need someone to tslk to or accompany them to activilies, appointménts etc. As a result of Covid we were able to secure funding to add a Mental Health SupFK)rt Worker to the stsff team to support the increased number of Feople presenting V#ith mental health issues and the need to apply for subsequent benefits. We are actively looking to secure additional funding to recruit another staff member to support the Mental Health worker with the welfare benefits work whith has increased over the last year.
