PURPLE PATCH ARTS REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021 Zoom Sessions_ these sessions recreated the structure of our usual Pro8rammes. albeit for a short¢r amount of time, 8iving parti¢ipanls a much-needed routine and oppottynity to connect with each other. We also extended our usual offer from term-time i)nly to all year-round. in re5pon5e to feedback we received from participants who didn't wanL or need. a break during those challenging times. Zoom Disco- our monthly Zoom discos continued throughout the year, giving people an Oppor￿nity to connect with peers across Yorkshire. DoilyAclivilies- these accessible. creative. educational activities that could be done at home using sources found around the house and garden were published on a weekly basis on our website" during 2020121 we published 26 weeks. worth of activities.

By June 2021. 560/0 of our participants were a¢¢essing our Zoom s¢s5ions. an increase of10 people from the end of the last financial year. This increase was achieved by investing a great deal of time and effort in encouraging participants and their support networks to embrace our digital approach, and wa5 supported by a donation of l O devices from Go(Ml Things Foundation through ihe Everyone Connected initiative. Pareni ¢mdCarer Zoom - Th¢ pandemic was a Challenging time for many of the parents and carers of our participanls. and in October 2020 we set up a monthly Zoom quiz nighi specifically to support ihem. This came as a request from the parent of one of our participants and r¢sw>nded to an id¢ntified need for socialisation. A consistent group quickly forwned, with th¢ sessions aciing as an opportunity for people to have fun during a time of great un¢ert2inty and sI￿ss. to ￿nneCt and wmmuni¢ate with other p¢opl¢ in similar situations. and to offer respite for a short period one evening a month. The sessions have been very w¢ll received and ¢ontinue on a monthly b&sis. Aitn 2 - Tr#nsition safely back into Progrnmmes, with proeedures and syslems in place to keep staff and participAnts safe and supported. both physically and emotiollally. Alongside managing our onlin¢ offer. from March 2021 our focus shifted to preparing for reopening our Lifelon8 Learning Pro8rammes as Covid restrictions began to ease. We consulted with participants. support networks, local authorities and venues and undertlM)k extensive risk assessments, developing thorough health and safety pro¢¢dures in order to prot¢¢t participants and to enable them to return safely. We successfully reopened on 21° June and remained open until the end of our academic year on 23 July. A key priority for us was maintaining the 'feel' of our Programmes. and thi5 was achieved thanks to the extraordinary effort of our office staff and delivery team5. who worked tirelessly io find creative, engaging ways to deliver our work within Covid guidelines. By the end of the a¢ad¢mi¢ year a large proportion of participants had returned to face-to-face Programme5, and feedback from participants and their support networks was overwhelmingly tx)5itive. Social distancing has limited OUT ability to recruit new participants to fill all of the spaces left by those who have chosen not to return. this has led to a reduction in fees income as a result. A key priority next year will be to recruit new participants if and when restrictions allow.
