activities undertaken estsblish and develop long term relationships with a number of organisations,
These provide physical, financial or both to support the trust, enabling these activities to continue,.
One of the rollover project5 IS the static caravans in Skegness which enables ihe trust to
continually provide a benefit to individuals and families, improvin8 their wellbeing by
provldlng a place of safety away from their everyday environment. All families have their
own story for requlrlng and uslng thls f3cility from needlng a bleak to develop or rebuild
relationships, through to having the first family holiday together. Feedback is sought to
ensure we are meeting the needs of the familles involved, to date all feedback has been
posltive. There is also 3 benefit to the PLJblic at the home address as the families improve
their social Interactlon locally. 23 bookings were taken cluring 2024125 season relevant to
this trustee report an decrease on the previous season of 6 or-21%. Whilst thls 15 a
reduttion it is still higher than bookings in previous years. Work Is ongoing to improve the
bookings, additional contacts should see thls increase. The intention being to make these
cash neutral to the trust

quite labour intensive (charges are being looked at for 20251 they are now packed in Trust
tote bag5 Icarrying the trust detailsl. These were distributed around a number of local
organlsaiions for passing on to local famllies.
The minibus is used to enable groups to experience the various artivity events we arrange. As
always the opportunities over the next 12 months are to further develop our relolionship5, publicise
the trust to a greater audience, build on our successful fundraising and to gain further recognition
for the charity. Relationships continue to be established the Derbyshire Children's Home being
which has been re-energlsed after the appointment of new personnel, this is also SLlPPOrted
contacts with other Rotary clubs within the East Midland5 assisting in our development.
