by offering training with a view to increasing and improving their
quality of life.| |---|---| ||**It has been a challenging twelve months with pressures on**
**several fronts.**
Firstly, the COVID 19 restrictions meant that outdoor activities were
restricted in numbers until fully lifted in late July 2021.
Pressure from our main funder following an anonymous complaint
restricted access to our grant funding from October through to the
end of the twelve-month period.
Lack of access to meeting rooms at our physical base and spiritual
home (28B King Henrys Walk) added to difficulties in managing and
developing coherent strategies moving forward.
Gardening, the external support group, counselling and badminton
activities continued as they are considered core to Eagles and were
funded from reserves thus seriously depleting Eagles financial
robustness
This meant expanded project plans being on hold until the issue was
resolved with resolution being greatly delayed through funder
continued its policy of working from home reducing coherence and
coordination of the funders response to Eagle queries on the detail
of the complaint and resolution processing.
Despite COVID restrictions being fully lifted in late July internal
access to meeting rooms for social activities at Eagles spiritual home
and Gardening Club centre was not lifted until the following financial
accounting period. This led to increased costs of regular
management & trustee meetings in Cafes as a lower cost option to
hiring external Islington based meeting rooms.
**Regular Group Activity support**
In April 2021 the**Gardening club**opened up to service users as
most of the beds had been built and 9 fruit trees planted including
apple, plum, quince and apricot.
Eagle**Outdoor Wednesdays**sports & social in Clissold Park
continued with increased numbers of 15 allowed with outdoor
badminton,croquet and boules. Sandwich food wasprovided using| March **2012** **TAR** 3 a local take away shop until the weather deteriorated in September. The Wednesday event attracted 10-12 members each week. Pilates in the Park **Quiz & Bingo** continued throughout the year over Zoom account attracting 8-10 people each week. Eagles professionally supervised **Counselling service** managed to keep four clients in counselling support delivered via Zoom through much of the twelve-month period providing emotional stability to the Eagle client base. Eagle **Tuesday Badminton club** finally opened up at Sobell in August attracting 8-10 members each week over the remaining eight-month period. ## **Monday evening activities** In June Eagle went bowling at Rowans once number restrictions were lifted to fifteen per group An Eagle **External Thursday Support group** running weekly on Thursday evenings was started in September and continues to attract 6-8 people each week looking for like-minded recovery colleagues without the social element of Eagle. There is always a need to give those in recovery options. ## **One Off Events** **Sunday Cinema** took Eagle to the Rio Dalston on the 20[th of] June. Fifteen members saw a Danish Oscar winning comedy “Another Round” with mixed reactions to the movie but thumbs up for helping people get out and about. Early July saw Eagle celebrate their **10[th] Birthday** in Clissold Park much to the delight of one of its founders (Mike Sanderson) who congratulated the team on their creativity and ingenuity throughout the Pandemic period when access to meeting rooms and kitchen resources for food preparation were curtailed. Later in the month Eagle organised 20 members to visit the **Banksy exhibition** in Covent Garden with everybody emerging determined to hunt down a “ Banksy ” and make their fortune! A good time had by all but no millionaires!! August saw twenty hardy Eagle souls leaping into the sea on their annual beach day out to Soothed. No deaths, no divorces and no relapses but buckets of fish and chips devoured. March **2012** **TAR** 4 August frolics were followed by management team EDI (Equality, Diversity & Inclusion) training delivered via a two-day training course delivered by Genesis Consultancy Limited. Better Lives allowed Eagle to host a separate Eagle 10[th] Birthday barbecue which attracted 27-30 attendees In September Eagle ran a Recovery month barbecue in coproduction with Better Lives with some 30 people attending. Good to know there is enthusiasm for treatment services and recovery in Islington In October a large group (20) saw the latest James Bond film at our local independent cinema, the Rio. Everybody came out wondering where they had parked their Aston Martins. Hey ho the 30 bus was still running. The remainder of the twelve-month period was largely consumed with issue resolution around Lottery Funding and keeping the remaining activities on track. However, Eagle ingenuity kicked in again with a Christmas party held at the site of Eagles Thursday evening support group with Better Lives allowing hot food preparation at 28B King Henrys Walk. Some thirty people attended and ended the year in a festive mood. The New Year brought more issue resolution work lightened by the management team organizing a Jack the Ripper tour in East London which gave vent to gallows humour being directed at whoever had lodged the anonymous complaint. The tragedy being that because the complaint was never delivered to Eagle directly there was no opportunity to respond. However, tragedy turns to triumph in the following financial year. Another chapter for you all to read when it emerges. Over the 1[st] quarter of 2022 Eagle was in contact with the Recoverist Theatre group negotiating a co-produced series of drama workshops for the following operating year. March **2012** **TAR** 5 ## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** Reference needs to be made to the following volunteers and their service over this pandemic period and who went the extra mile for their fellow service users. You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: - policy on grant making; - policy programme related investment. - contribution made by volunteers. **Ritchie Philip** who led two barbecue teams, the Christmas party food preparation and took on the running of the Thursday evening external support group. **Mick Havens** who ran Zoom Quiz nights through the year in addition to the blood curdling Jack the Ripper tour. **John Acton** who held all the activities together, worked tirelessly on resolving issues raised by Eagles main funder drafting correspondence with evidential proof of the integrity of Eagle finances. He also led co-production with the gardening project and negotiated a co-production with the Recoverist Theatre group for the following operating year. March **2012** **TAR** 6 Section D Achievements and performance March **2012** **TAR** 7 Section D Achievements and performance **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** Eagle kept alive the mental wellbeing of a significant number of their members throughout the pandemic and post pandemic period with the Eagle Management Committee being the main point of contact for many members. Job done in extraordinary circumstances with pressure coming from both cash flow and premises access restrictions. The management team stepped up and served their community. March **2012** **TAR** 8 ## **Section E Financial review** At the end of this financial year we held only 6% of our increased annual **Brief statement of the** income in reserves. Our original aim stated 50% but the commitment to **charity’s policy on reserves** the expanded project backed by increased funder commitment followed by the funder income freeze will require us to build up reserves over the next few years. **Details of any funds materially in deficit** ## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: The principal source of funding is a quarterly grant from the Reaching Communities team at the National Lottery. - the chari ty’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising0 - how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; - investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted. ## **Section F Other optional information** ## **Section G Declaration** **The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.** **Signed on behalf of the charity’s trustees** **Signature(s) Full name(s)** Michael Sanderson **Position (eg Secretary, Chair,** Chair **etc) Date** 18th January 2023 March **2012** **TAR** 9 CHARITY COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND ANO WALE5 Independi>nt examlnefs repcKt ori the accounts $￿ts0n A Ind•pon*J•nt Examin•r's R•port R•wt to th• mist•• EAGLE REC￿Ry PROJECT 31 MAR(X 2022 CINirlty •(• 1185430 I re*to th• my 0X￿1r￿tIon ol1fr18 a¢*AuniS Ilh• frthfi for ym 31W21122.
