1. OVERVIEW
This report describes the activities of The Mindful Life charity (no. 1166378) for the year 2020. The report has been prepared primarily for submission to the Charity Commission. The report has been written by The Mindful Life’s trustees, Nick Mabey. This is the fifth annual report prepared since The Mindful life became a charity on 5th April 2016.
As with many charities, 2020 was dominated by Covid19, which saw a scaling back and a movement on-line of the charity’s activities. As such this report will be much more concise than previous one.
The pandemic caused an immediate suspension of our face to face work, and we are still yet to return to it. We moved our work to Zoom and created a range of offerings that served us through the year, namely:
-
Taster sessions
-
3-session teaching programmes
-
Regular mediation sessions
These have very popular with participants and we are proud to have been able to make a contribution to the wellbeing of carers during this very testing period. Going forward we intend to continue with an on-line offering.
