Trustee Report for 2022

It became clear very early in 2022 that things were most definitely getting back to normality, and while bad weather was not a particular issue, the bookings EA-CAT were taking for spring and summer events were piling in! Training as a result was sadly forced to take a back seat for this year with the exception of a Multi-Agency Flood Exercise which turned into a real incident due to volunteer ’victims’ suffering from early onset hypothermia. Finances remain healthy.

Event breakdown:

20 Events (2x two day and 1x four day: Total of 28 days at events) 2x PR events

1x Event request for assistance from neighbouring response group.

1x Joint Training Day (Flood Exercise)

Total days that EA-CAT members were out assisting the local communities: 32 days:

As always seems to happen, 3 were on the same date, but all were supported by the Team.

Our Events Coordinator initiated a monthly Team Chat-room during lockdown, considered by all a vital asset: This has continued through 2022.

Total taskings & online chats available for members to take part in: 36

Membership of the team continued to be stable through 2022 but it is clear that this is no longer enough for the requests for assistance and that in order for the Team to grow we can't just rely on active taskings to attract members and must actively promote ourselves. Moving into 2023 and beyond, it is our intention to try and attend at least three ‘promotion-only’ events annually to recruit new members. It’s not going to be easy as volunteering appears to be suffering from a distinct lack of interest in many fields but we can only try.
