| Summary ofthe main achievements ofthe charity during the year |
The first 6 months ofthe year were difficult as the country was still in a COVID-19 lockdown situation with planned activities for the summer cancelled due to a period of full lock down issued by the Government. |
||
| COVID-19 was still impacting on the fundraising capability ofthe charity |
|||
| through as the charity's planned Christmas Carol concert in December at |
|||
| Manchester Cathedral was cancelled due to the surge ofthe new |
|||
| omicron variant. | |||
| Despite this, the fundraising income ofthe charity has grown significantly |
|||
| due to a planned programme of activities throughout the year and a |
|||
| comprehensive fundraising strategy that was introduced in January 2021. |
|||
| The focus ofthe fundraising manager was to drive fundraising from within |
|||
| the Home Instead network of local offices. This coupled with the strategy |
|||
| and operation plan meant the charity achieved its best year in terms of |
|||
| income generation and grant distribution. |
|||
| The most significant change in 2021 was to the name ofthe charity. The |
|||
| Trustees embarked on ajourney of identifying the charities strengths, |
|||
| weaknesses, opportunities and threats and made the decision to re name |
|||
| the charity Home instead Charities UK to reflect the global nature ofthe |
|||
| work the charity was undertaking with sister charities in US, Canada and |
|||
| Australia. The move would also prove influential in the charities |
|||
| fundraising capabilities within the Home Instead network and is credited |
|||
| with the significant increase in fundraising and engagement from this |
|||
| target audience. |
