The Trustees changed in February 2023 followi￿ adwce from the Charity Commission regarding eligibility under the terms of the goveming document. At the same lime, the organisation had a perii)d where day to day decisM)n making was th8 restK)nsibility of the Trustees., this has now r8V8rted to the Servi￿ manager. B3 was created by individuals who were a￿Ssing drug treatment services and wanted lo help Ihemselv8s and others facing the same struggles. By design it is supported by peer led rnerri)ers ￿lch enables us to address problems facing peopl8 with substsnce misuse issues in Brent. Aims and Objectives These remain as in previous years. B3 offers peer support and advocacy to drug and al(x)hol Servi￿ users. We contribute to improvèments in Brent SeNi￿S and help Servi￿ users improve the quality of their lives. 1.Aims 1.1.

Improve services in Brent through L¥)mmunity researth. parthership work. training arKI Servi￿ user involverrenL 2. Activities 2.1. B3 holds a Brent-wide servi(t users, group every Friday to disoJ5s issues conceming service users in BrenL 2.2. B3 works in partnership bwth B￿nt Public Health, and Brent New Beginnings. 2.3. B3 member5 can take part in.. • Meetings lo advocate with Servi￿ providers., . Awareness raising events and presentations" . P8er research; . OUt￿ach., and • Training. 3. Benefits for B3 Members

In addition we assist with various research and evalualions as needed. 4.3. B3 offers advice and support to Servi￿ us8r groups in Brent. 4.4. 83 offers Ra￿Very Chanwion training in partr￿rship with local services. This was restarted during the year following the bng temi impact of COVID restrictions. 4.5 B3 provides a weekend Servi￿ IBSAFE) that gives a safe environment for service users at a time when other facilities are unavailab￿. With the reduclM)n in volunteer numbèrs as a Cons￿Uen￿ of the disruption caused by COVID restrictions this was reintroduced duriro the year on a Salurdays only basis Review of activities and achievements The reintrcKJuGtion of the Re￿Very Champions training bwas a significant step during the year. Whilst the course has been run SU￿ssfUlly, referrals lo it by other serwces have been at a lower level than before COVID, and this It(yJether with the suspension of the course during and while recnvering from COVKI) has red￿￿d the number of volunteers {graduates of the course) availabl6 to support other services provided by B3. The reduction in referrals was to some extent offset by higher conversion of referrals to starters and graduates of the training. In the last full year (2019-201 there were 4 ￿urSeS with 53 referrals leading to 33 starters and 25 graduates. In the half yearfollowing reintrodUc￿n there were 2 courses with 17 referrals leading to 13 starters and 11 graduates. Retuming nurnt￿r of referrals to p￿-cOv1D levels remains a significant fo(￿$. The tearn continued to provide more one to one support to service users, either by phone Dr fa￿ lo face. Where possible th& conlact was provided on a regular basis. W8 also continued to provide buddying ser￿(￿ (ac￿mPanY1ng se￿1￿ users to places like pb ￿ntreS and health reviews) for referrals from WDP. We to CA)ntinue to provide a(ws to a wide rdnge training.

Supe￿is1on Workshop, MECC, Dealing with Violent and Aggressive Behaviour An important part of wr seNi(* is ensuring that service users with whom we are in contact are also able to aC￿sS other servios within the borough. This requires signtficant InfO￿atIOn sharing a￿1 coordinatK)n and we continued to take part in 8 wid& number of forums to ensure that this happens. 83 has ThK)ved its weekly seNice user ¢￿jnCil meeting, where matters such as opportunitiès to volunteer are shared with Servi￿ users, back to fa(E to fa￿. We continued to support Brent Hubs which allows our service users to access dtFferent serVI￿S such as advi￿ on housiro and drug and alcohol use), but this was done by telephone rdther than at booths in the library.
