Introduction

I am delighted to introduce the annual report for Re:Dish and once again to be able to give a really positive message.

This past twelve months have seen an awful lot of work spread over all of our various activities that we undertake on behalf of all the people of Reddish.

I think it is important to say that as a local charity we have absolutely no political or religious bias we are here to serve our whole community and our volunteers come from all walks of life and from all ages and back ground. Our wonderful volunteers are our lifeblood and without them we would not be able to provide any of our services.

We currently offer a really diverse group of services to our community. This year we have continued building a reputation as a community space in our hub with a timetable of regular groups (adding Active with County and Crafty Women) and one off events (Men in Sheds art exhibition, cost of living sessions).

We have also continued to develop partnerships with other organisations to broaden our offer - working with Make a Difference on our Youth Group and Stockport County Community Trust on our exercise groups,as well as other organisations such as St Joseph’s school, our local PCSOs and Independent Options,

All our partners are listed in this report. We value our work with you, your advice, guidance, and sometimes your financial assistance, without your collective support we would find it really difficult to keep our charity moving forward.

As I write this introduction we have some really interesting projects in the pipeline which I would hope to elaborate further in next years report.

We never stand still we have much we want to offer our wonderful community and with your support and encouragement we will continue to serve for many years to come.

Our Story So Far

O U R V I S I O N

To re-distribute good stuff around Reddish

O U R A I M S

O U R V A L U E S The work of Re:dish has grown . from a Christian and Co-operative ethos which is reflected in our values today:

Working together we aim: • To improve the quality of life for the people living within the wards of Reddish North Reddish South and Heatons Norrus, in the Borough of Stockport. • To create a sense of community pride

• To become known as the place to go to for support if you have a problem or crisis (and offer either signposting elsewhere or own services to help)

We were pleased to be able to run our cafe without Covid restrictions during 2022-23. We welcomed back both previous clients as well as some new faces. We enjoyed a celebration for the Queens Jubilee as well as Christmas and Easter celebrations and our usual weekly activities such as quizzes, music and bingo.

Future Developments

We will continue to promote the DFC within Reddish and throughout our Stockport networks so that we can support more clients.

We will take advantage of the new community garden and garden furniture at St Agnes Church when the weather allows.

Wellbeing

Banter & Brews

During this year our men's self-support group went from strength to strength - reaching more men who are isolated or bored.

The group members have been on several enrichment trips including to St Annes, the Avro Museum and Museum of Transport. They were also hosted by Houldsworth Park Bowling Club.

Members also had visits from different organisations including PCSOs, Stockport Public Health and Pure Innovations.

The group also started up new sessions in neighbouring locations including Heaton Norris and Brinnington.

51 sessions

3 volunteers

50-55 members 10-15 clients per week

Future Developments

Due to its continued success Banter & Brews are looking to become a constituted group so that they can apply for funding in their own right to support their activities. They will continue to work in partnership with Re:dish and host a weekly Tuesday session at the hub.

The group are also exploring the possibility of running an evening group to meet the growing demand for the service.

Wellbeing

Crafty Women

Following on from the success of Banter & Brews we set up a free peer support group in Autumn 2022 for women to meet & socialise. This originally started out as Tea & Talks. However, several of the original attendees wanted to ‘do’ something and so the idea of a crafting group was born. Attendees can bring a craft, share a craft, learn a skill or simply come and have a chat and a cuppa.

The group has created decorations for shop window displays and more recently they have upcycled items that are then sold to raise funds for the group by selling them in the shop or at events.

20 sessions

2 volunteers

8-12 clients weekly

Future Developments

The group are planning to hold workshops with different craftspeople to further develop their develop their skills eg jewellery and floristry

They are also planning enrichment trips this year to broaden their horizons and have some fun!

Wellbeing

Active with County

In March 2023 we launched our new free exercise for all programme with our partners Stockport County Community Trust. This free weekly group is for everyone regardless of their fitness level as both chair based and standing exercises are demonstrated.

This group compliments our other social on groups focusing improving physical wellbeing. It is now an integral part of our weekly programme of activity.

Future Developments

To continue to increase participation in the weekly group

To look at training a volunteer (s) who can deliver the exercise programme and ensure its sustainability.

Wellbeing

Youth Group

In Spring 2022 we began our youth project partnership with Make a Difference. Initially this was a detached youth work project engaging with young people in locations across Reddish including Orange Park, North Reddish Park, Reddish Vale and Houldsworth Square.

In September 2022 we secured a venue in North Reddish Park for a youth group targetting young people aged 11-15. This weekly free group enables young people to take part in sport, music, arts & crafts and quizzes and challenges with food provided. There are also monthly trips to HideOut, a nearby youth centre with a huge range of activities on offer. We have also organised visits from PCSOs and held a bike maintenance session.

34 sessions

2 youth workers

8-14 young people

Future Developments

To develop the programme of activities in accordance with the interests of the young people attending. Ideas include a wellbeing session, cookery, milkshake making

Goodshare

Re:dish Shop

This year with our new manager in place for the full year we increased our trading income significantly by 30%.

As well as our seasonal window displays we are developing a reputation for a number of other sales events...

£ 62,163 income

an annual outdoor sales event in Spring

We also benefitted from an e-bay course which has helped us develop this sales channel for specialist items and collectibles. We now have dedicated volunteer who works on this to keep our online shop up to date.

We continue to work with Men in Sheds and sold 39 bikes over this year.

15 volunteers

Future Developments

We will continue to sell specialist items via ebay building more expertise in this area and will look at attending other events such as the monthly Vintage market in Stockport.

We will support local events such as Reddfest and the Reddish Christmas light switch on by hosting sales events and adjusting our hours to fit the events.

We will invest in a new till so that we are able to register and reclaim Gift Aid.

Hub

Re:dish Hub

Our programme of activities at the hub has really developed this year - we now have a regular social group running most days of the week when we are open.

We have also hosted one off events and meetings. This included a week long ‘Life Cycles’ art exhibition with Men In Sheds in May - opened by the Mayor - Councillor David Wilson.

In July we hosted a pizza evening for our volunteers. In November 2022 we hosted a series of events to support people through the cost of living crisis with topics including Benefit Advice, Debt Management, Energy Advice, Digital Skills and Employment Guidance.

We have also hosted a number of Vision Group meetings on behalf of Stockport Council. This Group brings together businesses and community groups to looking at ways to regenerate the district centre of Reddish. We are keen to support this work as a central part of the Reddish community.

Future Developments

We will look at different approaches regarding information and advice - inviting organisations to come to existing groups or events to offer their services.

We will set up a group for people with long term illnesses / disabilities and we will also explore the possibility of working with the Good Grief Group to offer a support group for those who have been bereaved.

We will rent the rooms for use to community groups (at a reduced rate), for council meetings and as office space.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Re:dish

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Re:dish for the year ended

31 March 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). I report in respect of my examination of the accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner’s statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
