## **Chairmans Report for the year ending 31st March 2022** 

January 2021 saw us back in lock down.  This meant that we had to close and could not deliver face to face sessions.  We continued to deliver on-line sessions via Zoom, offering 



a range of quizzes and activities.  We re-opened in April after the Easter holidays. Since re-opening we have managed to run regulars sessions although we did have to cancel a couple of sessions due to Covid and isolation.  Our volunteer numbers have held up but the stop start nature of the last year has meant a big turnover in personnel.  Our membership numbers were low initially but slowly recovered to pre-December levels. 

In the first few months of 2021 our Monday and Friday session leaders moved to full time careers in the Prison Service and the NHS respectively.  We advertised the posts and managed to replace one of the positions, only for that person the leave after just two months in post following a job promotion.  We immediately looked for replacements, advertising the vacancies in the local free newspaper, regional paper and social media. Unfortunately we had no response which was very disappointing.  With the support of our volunteers and Session Manager we managed to keep our sessions running and supporting our families. 

Obviously this situation could not continue, we needed to understand why we could not recruit new session leaders and how we move forward.  The Trustees and Session Manager met to look at options and it was agreed that due to work commitments and family situation Callum Lee would step down from his role as Session Manager and join the the board of Trustees.  We would then appoint a Centre Manager to work 15 hours/ week who would be able to move the charity forward.  At this point. would like to say a big Thank You to Callum for the time, commitment and expertise he has given in supporting the charity over many years. 

Over the summer break we advertised the new role and had a very good response.  We shortlisted and interviewed three people and offered Alison Smith the post from October 2021 Callum agreed to stay in his paid role until January 2022 to support Alison during a handover period. 

We continue to have links with BaNES and Keynsham Town Council, Community at 67 and St Francis Church.  We continue to work with Bath University and their post graduate students on their Practice Track project and also with their undergraduate students on a similar project.  As last year this has been mostly using Zoom and social media. 

Following the appointment of Alison in October we have formed links with a number of other organisations.  Alison has had very positive meetings with Wellsway School Keynsham, Oasis Academy in Brislington and St Brendan’s six form college.  This could be a source of volunteers as well as offering opportunities to their students.  We have also formed links with Fossway School who can offer training to our volunteers and support to our parents and carers. 

We continue to offer a safe and friendly environment for our families and always seek to offer new and exciting opportunities  to our children and young people.  This year we worked with Bristolian productions who brought Father Christmas to Butterflies-Haven. We have formed a partnership with them and in the Spring they are booked to do a “Silly Science” show and around Christmas time a 75 Minute Pantomime, which we hope to offer to the wider community. 

We have also started to work with a company called Graffarty.  In the Autumn they came and with our older members produced some street art..  This was very popular and we hope to hold further sessions during the year. 



2021 has been a very challenging year.  Lockdown for the first three months and then losing our paid staff did not get us off to a very positive start.  During this difficult time everyone pulled together to keep the charity running as smoothly as possible.  Alison has now settled into her role and pulled things together, reaching out to schools and colleges, engaging with parents and carers and pushing to increase membership. 

We have had a number of successes this year.  One of members/volunteer has gone on to be successful in obtaining a place at Liverpool University and starts in the Summer 2021. Another of our young members/volunteers has been elected onto Keynsham Town Council this year.  They both joined the Butterflies-Haven Young Voice group at a young age.  We wish them every success in the future. 

As mentioned above, Callum joined the Trustees in January.  His appointment will bring a young voice and lots of experience of working with children to the trustee group.  We are looking to increase of trustee numbers and to bring more skills an experiences to the board.  We really want to start looking to the future. Hopefully the coming year will be more settled, Covid has shown us that we cannot be too complacent and that the situation can quickly change.  The situation this year has meant us not moving forward as planned and, hopefully,  that will change  this year.  To start the new year off, we are planning an away day with a independent facilitator to help us put together a vision for the future and an action plan to achieve our priority outcomes. 

Our Numbers are now back to last years level and we have had lots of interest from potential volunteers.  Seven students from Oasis Academy came along for a taster session. 

Because we are unique in what we offer, we have members attending from Bristol, Banes and South Glos.  One family travelling in from Bradley Stoke.
