The need to adapt and flex our model of||| |||||||||support|has also allowed
A Mile In Her Shoes to think differently

restdictions
allowed, we|| ||||||||||||continued
to deliver our group activity sessions. As well as fun running-|| ||||||||||||based games sessions, we now provide sessions
including
other fitness|| ||||||||||||elements
requested
by beneficiaries. These include boxercise, Zumba,|| ||||||||||||mindfulness
and yoga elements. Some sessions are outdoors and some|| ||||||||||||are indoors; this has allowed
more opportunities
for women to engage who|| ||||||||||||lack confidence
in exercising outdoors.|| |||||||||||o|Sessions delivered
remotely: Coaches and volunteers
delivered
some|| ||||||||||||sessions
by Zoom to give members
(as we refer to the women who join|our| ||||||||||||sessions) the opportunity
to maintain
or start fitness activities when they|| ||||||||||||could not or were not confident enough tojoin face to face sessions. This|| ||||||||||||had the added benefit of helping
members
to keep themselves

in 2021.| ||||||||~|Impact of activities: The trustees are persuaded
that the charity's
work has made a| |||||||||positive difference to its beneficiaries'
circumstances.
Evidence ofthis includes
positive| |||||||||feedback from them indicating
an improvement
in physical
and mental wellbeing
and in| |||||||||overall motivation
to be more active and get things done in spite of COVID restrictions.| ||||||||~|In addition,
we have begun to extend our scope to the Borough ofWestminster.
We| |||||||||had an initial meeting
in December
with Specialist Homeless
Health team at Great| |||||||||Chapel Street Medical Centre to discuss the project. We are due to follow up this| |||||||||month
but the impact of lockdown
on Homeless
Health services is likely to be| |||||||||significant
although
we hope this is an opportunity
to broaden the project going| |||||||||forward.| ||||||||Organisational
development|| ||||||||In addition to ongoing service delivery,
the charity achieved some organisational|| ||||||||development
goals which
will enhance

in future. These include:|| ||||||||~|Actions to improve
