## **Chairman’s Report** 

## **April 2020 – March 2021** 

This report covers the year in which the Centre was mainly closed due to COVID restrictions. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Tracy, Janet, Janet and Peta for their continued flexibility in dealing with furlough.  I would also like to thank them for keeping in regular touch with CAMEO and Brightside attendees during this time as it was a very lonely time for many of our regulars. 

Items covered by this report: 

## COVID Support Grants 

We were incredibly grateful for the COVID Support Grants and Furlough payments from the government which helped us enormously through the period of lockdown. 

## Therapists 

Martha and Sue (Osteopath and Chiropractor) were able to continue working after a couple of months of lockdown and practiced within the Centre although we were closed to the General Public.  Ruth (Massage Therapist) was able to work again by the summer.  We are very grateful to the therapists who contributed hugely to our income over the year. 

## CAMEO, Brightside and Memory Cafe 

All of our services for the elderly were suspended during this financial year due to COVID restrictions. 

## Staff 

Tracy, Jan and Janet were all fully furloughed during this financial year, Peta was partfurloughed.  Whilst being furloughed, Peta studied online and qualified as a Bookkeeper so she is now able to take on the financial aspects of running the Centre which was previously outsourced to an Accountancy firm. 

It has been a very challenging year but we can look ahead with the Centre now fully open albeit with reduced services.
