TRUSTEES REPORT 2022-23
In another busy year PACT welcomed two new trsutees to the board, Danny Clark with a long work experiecne in support young people into emplyment and Julie Green who has a background in social work.
PACT House continues to grow, finding it’s place in the heart of the community as the ‘go to’ place for help and support of any kind. The cost of Living crisis was cemented the robust support base that PACT House provides llocally.
Food poverty continues to be a huge issue, running alongside problems with Universal Credit and other benefits issues and low incomes. The cost of living crisis and huge rise in energy costs has impacted PACT House with more families asking for support.
PACT has extended support for mental health and well-being, finding this area of need rising faster than any other. Think Positive Durham is now in place offering community mental health support, well-being activities and peer support sessions, PACT delivery reaches the whole community, providing an increasing amount of clubs and activities, some purely recreational, some addressing addiction, sexuality, mental health and social interaction.
We are now providing 3 free community meals each week, offering hot food and giving a safe, warm and welcoming place for anyone in our community to enjoy.
Free internet access, computer use and printing is still proving well used by all areas of the community as well as job searchers and young people doing homework.
Our foodbank crisis packs are supplemented by daily end of life / fresh food items that we are encouraging people to access as a way of combating food waste and not just for those facing food poverty.
