Thorpe Hamlet Hub. We opened this in January 2022, renting a |
||||
| purposes | for the public | room in a local church for 2 hours every |
|||||
| benefit, | in particular, | the | Thursday. This was extended to a second |
||||
| activities, | projects or | services | day every Tuesday from June 2022 for an |
||||
| identified | in the accounts. | additional 4 hours. These craft and art |
|||||
| activities helped Members focus and |
|||||||
| manage anxiety and stress better and also |
|||||||
| upskilled them in learning new techniques. |
In | ||||||
| June 2022 we engaged a self-employed | |||||||
| sessional worker to facilitate the craft |
|||||||
| sessions. | |||||||
| Members learned how to crochet useful |
|||||||
| items and also techniques which supported |
|||||||
| their confidence in making useful objects or |
|||||||
| repairing existing items, saving money, |
|||||||
| improving life-skills and supporting those on |
|||||||
| a limited budget. Members began to attend |
|||||||
| Craft Fayres together and alone, displaying | |||||||
| and selling their creative items. | |||||||
| Sessions also included group discussions |
|||||||
| around topics of interest or concern, 1-2-1 | |||||||
| coaching for individuals wishing to explore |
|||||||
| specific personal issues confidentially and |
|||||||
| psycho-education around mental health to |
|||||||
| support growth, understanding and |
|||||||
| confidence in the possibility of positive |
|||||||
| change. | |||||||
| Members wishing to volunteer or apply for |
|||||||
| work were also provided with information |
|||||||
| and su ort to find suitable o ortunities |
| help with writing a C.V. and life skills such as |
|---|
| assertiveness around relationships. Support |
| was given to apply for state benefits to |
| maximise their income if unable to obtain |
| paid work. |
| We supported one ofour Members, a keen |
| photographer to hold an exhibition oftheir work through lockdown on 23"April 2022 at |
| The Forum in Norwich. Some other |
| Members also attended and engaged with |
| visitors to the exhibition. speaking about our |
| work. This was a positive opportunity for |
| them all in growing confidence and working |
| as a team towards a common project goal. |
| We held four Craft Fayres showcasing our |
| Members' craft items in July 2022; |
| September 2022 with a Green Theme; |
| November 2022 exhibiting and selling items |
| for the Christmas season and in February |
| 2023, again with a Green Theme. Some of |
| our Members helped at the stalls and spoke |
| to visitors about their work, supporting their |
| confidence and social skills as well as |
| modelling team work towards a common |
| objective. |
| We piloted a Community Cafe at St |
| Matthew's Church from 12/10/22 to |
| 21/12/22. Some ofour Members regularly |
| attended and one was inspired to study and |
| gain a certificate in Food Hygiene Safety |
| who is now working part-time. |
| Local residents also attended the Cafe and |
| we aspired to create an encouraging, warm, |
| welcoming space and a drop in facility for |
| social connection and support for our |
| Members and local community members. |
| The church incumbent advertised the church |
| as a 'Recovery Friendly' Church and invited |
| us to rent a space there and become co- |
| workers in creating a community space. In |
| practice the physical space was not suitable |
| as too cold. We were not able to achieve the |
| outcomes we aspired to achieve which |
| required more active participation from all |
| stakeholders in welcoming members ofthe |
| community actively into the building and |
| engaging with them. |
| We moved to Pilling Park Community |
| Centre, meeting from 3/4/23 and have |
| developed the Hub at this venue from that |
| date with an average of9 Members |
| attending each weekly session. |

| On 29/3/23 we piloted a Hub in central | ||||
