Charity's Activities and Achievements During the Year
I write this overview as the newly appointed CEO. following the retirement of the Previous Director Gary
Poulson at the end of March, and reflecl on what was a very busy and productive year with a strong team of
staff, trustees and volunteers. At this point, I think I must express the gratitude we have for all the hard work
and dedication that Gany has put in during his 25 and a half years, service to VCWB. He will be sorely missed.
Our Community Transport Services have seen growth in lenns of new vehicles and equipment and new
volunteer drivers. but also more importantly, increasing demand for their services, from new members and
individual car journeys to new Handybus trips.
Our annual V365 recrnitrnent fayre once again proved to be Success￿1, with over 544 potential volunteers
connecting with the 50 different charities at the event. We continue to see interest in volunteering frorn the
public of West Berkshire.
Our Ukraine Liai50n Support Project sadly came to an end in March after 18 months but during that time great
impact was made in supporting Ukrainians who were being hosted in West Berkshire. Over 750 refe]Tals and
340 families and individua15 were supported as a result of this project. connecting them to each other as well as
to local cotnmunity activities and charity support as they settled into a new way of life here in West Berkshire.
During thc year wc havc continucd to champion suieidc prevention awarencss and have delivcrcd rcgular
training and run a well-altcndcd action group, as well as upskilled our outreach woTkcr to deliver workshops for
peopl¢ working with Children and Young People which we will develop in the months ahead.
Our %trength as a Council for Voluntary Serviec h2g grown as ￿'e continue to bring together the Voluntary
Sector with Statutory Partners in ihe various forums. The Cosi of Living and Poverty Forllm has seen great
opportunities for collaboration between the voluntary sector members, West Berkshire Council and Greenham
Trust.
We delivered a successful series of Meet the Funder Events which was a collaborative initiative sought to create
relationships between the funders and charities. The eveni broughi together I I local and national funders with
50 West Berkshire charities.
