on public benefit and maintain a close regard to our charitable objectives.| June **2023** **TAR** 2 ## Section D Achievements and performance In the year, Wivey Cares has grown its network of volunteers and **Summary of the main** register of Micro-Providers (Self- Employed Carers) which stood at 48 at **achievements of the charity** the end of the year, who respond to diverse requests for help and **during the year** assistance from the community that is Wiveliscombe. We have been able to help secure the Higher Rate Attendance Allowance for over 120 residents, making a major difference to their ability to secure the care they needed, and are entitled too. These funds have facilitated the growth in number of Micro-Providers operating in Wiveliscombe, up from four when we launched, to some twenty-four now, and this number is growing monthly. With the increased availability of Micro-Providers, we are now able to facilitate earlier Hospital discharges, (with cost savings to the NHS from ‘bed blocking’) We envisage this to be an area of growth and funding for our co-ordinators in the coming years. Initially in response to Lockdown, and by utilising and building on our network of volunteers, we have been able to establish the Wivey Food Project, which during the year have cooked and delivered over 20,000 meals. In addition to the benefits to the recipients, the positive impact on the wellbeing amongst the volunteers as camaraderie built up, is building on a solid volunteer base in our community. This has now become an invaluable service to vulnerable households. We have become an exemplar of delivering community food resilience, and we are looking to build on this in the coming year. We have moved forward with our Memory Activity Group, which runs on a bi-weekly basis but hope to secure funding to make this a regular weekly activity as we secure further funding. Attendance has typically been six, with their carer each session In May we publicly launched our therapeutic horticultural project, ‘Wivey Grows’, which over 350 local residents attended. We launched the website Wiveygrows.net and we have deployed Better Impact to track our volunteers involvement. In January we had signed a two year licence (@£5 pa) with Voyage Cares for use of their site at Langley House, TA4 2UF, which provides us with a full range of facilities for the project.
