## **Dare to Live Report 2024** ## **Objectives of Dare to Live Trust** _“The objects of the CIO are to promote and improve the health and wellbeing of individuals suffering from depression, anxiety or the emotional and psychological effects of trauma by providing them with education, training and support”, May 2014._ In the past Dare to Live have specified supporting serving military, veterans and their families. Over the past recent years there has been an increase in significant support through initiatives like Armed Forces Covenant for this client group and it was proposed last year, 2023, to broaden the outreach to include other client groups such as carers, teachers and first responders. A further client group of young adults with significant trauma, is now also proposed. ## **Overview of 2024** No workshop programmes took place in 2024. As reported in 2023 the lack of availability of core delivery staff and lack of access to an equine herd, meant a rethink was needed, as to how Dare to Live could continue to meet its objectives and serve the community. Discussions were held with several charities about the provision of therapy for individuals suffering with complex trauma including the Criminal Justice Services but no terms were agreed. Over the past 9 years a charity called The Boys Clubhouse has closely followed the work of IFEEL Method Qualifications and two of their outreach team qualified in 2024 to work with clients presenting with life and/or mild/moderate trauma challenges. Since October 2024 Dare to Live has provided funds to work with clients 1:1 who have extreme PTSD and C-PTSD, including military veterans. ## **Dare to Live Trust funding applications - updates** National Lottery Awards for All application to be made in 2026 ## **2024 Funding Awards** - 3.5k in donations received - Legal & General continued to include Dare to Live in their ‘Pennies from Heaven’ donation scheme - Additional funding came in through personal and organisational donations.
