Section D Achievements and performance

Section D Achievements and erformance p

SAFE South West was established in August 2013 to work with local communities, Summary of the main Devon and Somerset Fire and Rescue Service (DSFRS) and other Emergency achievements of the charity Services around issues of community safety. during the year During 2023 / 24 the charity has continued with work regarding community resilience, home safety equipment and water safety. A new project Mental Health Support Benches was started. Community Resilience

In 23/24, SAFE South West continued to administer the Somerset Prepared grant fund – previously known as The Community Resilience In Somerset Partnership (CRISP) grant fund. The fund provides small grants to communities in Somerset to help enable them to be more resilient in the event of an emergency e.g. flooding Emergencies can happen and the emergency services will always have to prioritise those in greatest need during an emergency, especially where life is in danger. There will be times when a community may affected by an emergency but lives are not in immediate danger. During this time, individuals and communities may need to rely on their own resources to ensure they are able to cope with the consequences of the emergency.

Many communities already spontaneously help one another in times of need, but experience has shown that those who have spent time planning and preparing for this are better able to cope, and recover more quickly In Somerset a number of agencies and authorities e.g. Somerset County Council, DSFRS, Police, Environment Agency etc have come together as Somerset Prepared to help communities plan and prepare. They provide a range of help and advice including help in writing an emergency plan, advice on specific risks and hazards, case studies & contacts in other communities who have made themselves resilient and in addition provide small grants to help with the costs of items that help increase the resilience of the community.

The grant fund is primarily intended to help with the costs of small capital items and equipment e.g. boots, protective clothing, sandbags and sandbag hoppers, radios, snow shovels, equipment sheds and defibrillators. However, it is appreciated that it is also important that members of the community who are helping in a time of emergency are well trained. Grant aid can therefore be provided towards training costs. During 23/24 grants totalling £10,584 were awarded to 10 local community groups.

Safer Homes

During 23 / 24 SAFE South West continued to support the Safer Homes project in partnership with Somerset County Council, Public Health and DSFRS. 22/23 had seen the scheme extended into Plymouth via Barnardos and 23/24 saw the scheme extended further into Plymouth through an additional partnership approach with Action for Children. The project provides and fits a range of Home Safety Equipment for vulnerable families with young children in Somerset. The equipment includes Stairgates, Fireguards, window restrictors, cupboard locks, corner cushions, draw cord shortners and bath mats. The project also enables the families to receive a free Home Safety Visit from DSFRS which includes the

fitting of smoke alarms and other equipment and advice on a range of issues such as smoking, cooking, heating and escape plans.

The charity continued to work closely with DSFRS, helping to fund a mindfulness garden at Paignton fire station and providing educational resources for the fire setting team. Work around water safety was supported including helping to provide throwlines for business training and tow woggles to help with swimming lessons to the refugee community in Plymouth.

Mental Health Support Benches

This is a project being developed by SAFE South West following an approach from a Fire Fighter. It involves creating benches / signage to help those with mental health issues, by providing easy access to a range of information and support.

Progress

The project has good support and input from the leads for mental health and wellbeing in Somerset and Devon, Plymouth, Cornwall and Torbay all wish to take part, District Councillors, the Samaritans, SHOUT and Experts by Experience volunteering with Open Mental Health. The original concept of benches at highrisk locations came from a fire fighter in Barnstaple and has been retained but broadened to include locations where those needing a quiet space / in distress might go or where there are higher than average mental health issues.

The mental health support benches will have a plaque along the back with a QR code / URL (for access by those without a Smart phone) leading to a link tree with range of information and organisations providing support, together with a message saying if life is in danger phone 999. The QR code content varies slightly in each county reflecting local services and has been finalised with input from specialists in this field and from Experts by Experience. The message Come Sit With Us will be engraved along the back of the bench. One arm of the bench will have a Samaritans plaque the other a plaque from SHOUT, a text-based organisation for those who do not wish to make a phone call. The Samaritans and SHOUT have specially designed the plaques to be small enough to fit the arms of a bench / the seat and are fixed with one way security screws.

The benches are made from recycled plastic in light green, good for the environment and require no maintenance. In some areas, we will look to create new small planted tranquil areas for a bench to be located. In other places where there are already benches the plaques can be easily attached to the back, arms, or seat.

In previous years our staff and core costs were met charity’s policy on reserves by DSFRS and in these circumstances i.e. with no long-term liabilities such as rent, salary redundancy payments etc the charity has been able to operate effectively and responsibly without a firm policy. That situation has now changed and a decision on a reserves policy will be taken in the near future.
