WHO ARE WE?

Since 1978, DASH Ceredigion has been organising a variety of leisure schemes for disabled children and young people within the county of Ceredigion. We do this so that local disabled children and their families can have a better quality of life with access to a wide choice of leisure facilities and opportunities. Parents and carers get time to recharge their batteries and disabled children and young people get time of their own for personal, social and creative development in a welcoming and fun environment.

CHARITABLE OBJECTS

The object of the association is to promote the relief of disabled persons, in particular but not exclusively, by supporting disabled children and young people in any manner which now is or hereafter may be deemed by law to be charitable within the area of Ceredigion (herein called the area of benefit) and in furtherance of such object but further otherwise:

• To provide and assist in the provision of play schemes and other recreational activities;

• To provide short breaks to those children, young people and their families and carers;

• To encourage young people to volunteer and provide opportunities for volunteers to actively engage with disabled children and young people.

• To foster mutual co-operation and friendship between parents and guardians, relatives and friends of disabled people;

• To raise awareness of the problems faced by disabled people and their families and to encourage a positive attitude to disabled people;

• To do all other things lawful as are necessary for the attainment of the above objects.

Page 3/24

CROESO, WELCOME

A message from the Chairperson Eryl Bray

The Covid Pandemic and associated restrictions has impacted on the services DASH has been able to provide over the period April 2020- March 2021. Complying with the COVID restriction has meant that DASH was not able to provide the range of services that families and children would normally receive. This has been a difficult period for DASH. However I can appreciate that it has been much more difficult for parents of disabled children and of course for the children and young people themselves.

Despite the restrictions DASH was able to gradually increase the support as the restrictions eased. We can thank Ben and the DASH Team for their imaginative and flexible approach to provision during this difficult period.

DASH has been very fortunate in having Ben Freeman as Manager during this period. Ben started working for DASH just a month before this reporting period and weeks before the Covid National Lockdown. Ben has been excellent at steering DASH through this unprecedented and challenging time. The staff team have also been excellent, sharing creative ideas of how to help families and being flexible in their work commitment.

As Chair of Trustees I feel very privileged to work with such a committed team.

Message from Ben Freeman, Manager

The extraordinary impact of COVID 19 on 2020 lead to many challenges and changes for us all. It was certainly not what I had envisioned for my first year as Manager. That DASH has established and trusted presence in Ceredigion made the job of facilitating and organising our response very much easier.

The impact and the changes brought on by the impact of COVID on individuals, families, the social care sector and the employment market will be seen for many years to come. Some will be a challenge – supporting the children, young people and families who have experienced the additional pressures and limitations that this time brought must be recognised and kept in the fore. However the increased flexibility and relaxation around funding streams and targets should enable us to provide even more relevant support opportunities.

The limited but essential support provided by DASH over this year would not have been possible without Gail, Alison, Zoe, Joe (who joined us in the Office Administration Role in October), and the teams of support workers who displayed such adaptability and provided such a broad spectrum of support to the families and children in Ceredigion.

COVID

Introduction

The impact of the COVID 19 Virus was strongly felt over this reporting period. The spectrum of impact included legal and social limitations on how we could conduct our lives as well as the medical and emotional pressures places upon us by the not fully understood virus. These pressures had an even greater impact on disabled children and their families and they forced changes to familiar routine, caused actual and artificial limits on essential supplies and very significantly reduced the respite, socialisation and education opportunities for the young people themselves. The impact of these changes will no doubt be felt for several years to come.

– Pausing of service impact on Families and Staff

DASH paused all support and provision on 17[th] March. Apart from the clear impact this had on the children and their families, it also a financial and emotional impact on staff, who were expecting to work. We attempted to mitigate this as far as possible by ensuring anyone who was reliant on DASH for their primary income was appropriately supported and providing paid training and other opportunities to enable us to financially support staff whilst improving the quality of our provision.

Response from Funders

Our grant providers – Three Guinea’s Trust (TGT), Lottery and Children in Need (CiN) along with the County Council and Families First recognised the need for flexibility in their requirements and DASH work effectively with all of them to ensure that they all understood how we could best support families in need. The Lottery and CiN grants were paused, TGT fund was applied for and granted to support the Summer scheme. Regular contact was maintained with the Local Authority to ensure that the use of finances provided was acceptable to all.

Page 7/24

Adaptation and Change

As we needed to limit the number of attendees in order to increase social distancing and reduce transmission risk it was agreed to take referrals from the county council using the RAG system (see definition in the Appendix). This was put in place to ensure that those in highest need at that time were offered opportunities for support and respite. This system was a temporary measure which remained in place for all Local Authority funded activities throughout the County.

Gradually DASH begun to provide adapted services to support those in very high need. This included Doorstep drop-offs (This involved staff members providing shopping, medication pickup and various other non-contact support to families of disabled children to help reduce exposure, stress and family challenges.) and later in the year 1:1 community support session (outdoor focused support and respite sessions). Over this period, we also provided direct support to a young man whose parent was working in a care home for the elderly and provided the bungalow as emergency accommodation to a family with a disabled child who had effectively become homeless. We also provided support to a young man in the form of day sessions as well as respite who was at risk of being removed from his family. The benefit of having access to a building that was exclusively the properly of DASH was keenly felt at this time.

By Summer 2020, after much risk assessment and coordination, DASH ran 2 much limited but successful summer schemes. In September we were able to restart our Bungalow and DASHAway weekends. The style of the support provided was significantly different to previous years due to the need to meet the COVID regulations.

The adaptation, modification and learning that our staff put themselves through to ensure that as many children as possible had a fun, interesting and safe time when they were at DASH over this incredibly challenging period is to be highly commended and reflect their commitment to the young people at DASH. We are fortunate to have them.

Underspend

Good use was made of all our funding and additional support provided over this period, however there was a significant underspend in the Ymuno budget due to all child care settings being closed. DASH planned, sourced and offered training to these settings in order to support further improve their core understanding of additional needs that children in their care may have.

HOW WE DID – BENEFITS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE AND FAMILIES

[DASHAWAY Weekends] are a lifeline. We are so exhausted. A bit of peace is more important than I can express. It gives us all a very well-deserved break. As much as it provides respite for the parents, it also gives the kids some respite from us, and enables them to access activities we find difficult to do as a family

Learning independence away from home in a safe, happy environment . She loves all the activities provided and when permitting meeting girls similar to herself, although she has been on her own too and enjoyed that weekend equally.

SR LOVES going to the BUNGALOW, it helps to have something for her to look forward too as she suffers periods of acute anxiety and loves to be away from home doing different things. It also means we can have more “one to one” time with our other child who is also disabled. We all think the BUNGALOW project is wonderful.

Adjusted in new environment and meeting with new persons.

We are so very grateful that the playscheme went ahead this year, I’m very difficult circumstances. The schemes were incredibly well organised

A change of scenery and an opportunity todo different things.

Enabled them to access activities and make friendships in what had been a very isolated year. Also provided them with some much-needed routine and structure

Local Authority definition of the RED AMBER GREEN (RAG) rating system. Local Authority Red Amber Green (RAG) Rating system

Definition of RAG system provided by LA.

Social Workers in conjunction with their Managers have been asked to rag –rate their case loads in terms of level of concern;

Red = high vulnerability to abuse and neglect. This could include high risk of family breakdown/edge of care, not co-operating with agencies, chaotic lifestyle, risky behaviours, subject to PLO, complex support needs, no support network

Amber = medium vulnerability to abuse and neglect, low risk of family breakdown, some cooperation with agencies, some support needs but has some support network, placements with parents or family members

Green = low vulnerability to abuse and neglect, low risk of family breakdown, has care and support needs and is able to access support from community and family network

• Rag-rating needs to be regularly reviewed as the child and family’s situation changes
