’ – Chairman s Report 04/21 03/22
April 2021 – March 2022
This report covers the year in which the Centre was mainly closed for 5 months due to COVID restrictions. The Centre fully re-opened in September 2021 so this report covers 7 months of restarting services.
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 first 5 months.
Therapists
Martha, Sue and Ruth were all back to work after the restrictions and we welcomed Rachel to the team as another massage therapist. Betonica came back to the centre, and we are very grateful to them and to all the therapists who contribute so hugely to our income over the year.
Brightside and Memory Cafe
Janet Elworthy retired in September. We had one final Brightside day to say thank you to her for all her hard work over the past few years.
Janet has been a key part of the centre for many years and her energy and care running Brightside has been a fantastic asset to the centre. I would also like to thank her for her wonderful support to Brightside members during the pandemic. We wish her very well in retirement. I am sure she will still be very busy!
It was decided that we would merge Brightside and CAMEO into a new updated Service called Riverside.
Janet Morison, retired from running Memory Cafe. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Jan, who has run this as a volunteer for many years.
The Blackdown Community Shed
This new service opened under the umbrella of the Healthy Living Centre has slowly been becoming more established. New members are gradually increasing, and finances were helped greatly by the items made in the shed being sold at the Hemyock Market. Members of the shed have contributed to several community projects particularly the Parish Hall Play area and a complete refurbishment of the bench there.

Staff
Tracey Howe resigned from running CAMEO and I would like to this opportunity to thank her for her many years of service.
We appointed Lynn Pulman as Riverside Manager in October and in 6 months we increased our Riverside members from 5 to 16.
I particularly want to thank our volunteers without whom we simply could not function. Particularly notable is Janet Morison whose commitment to the centre is without equal. I would personally like to thank Peta our Centre Manager for her fantastic leadership of the centre. I am looking forward with my fingers firmly crossed to a year without major disruption.
