SHOUT WSK- ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-. FOR YEAR ENDING 31ST DECEMBER 2025 Page 28 2025 CEO Annual Message: A Year of Resilien and Connection To our volunteers. supporters. and the communty we se. Reflecting on 2025, the word that resonates rrTht with me is conneclion. In a year where the cost of Iprftng continued to challenge the security of so many. SHOUT IAISK did Nist remain a service provider, we beca a lifeline. The data in this yearfs report is staggerinfr18,244 volunteer hours donated by people who believe, as I do, that no one in communty should face hunger or isolatKJn alone. But behind every hour recorded and every ffeal sep4ed 1$ a human story. It is the story of the parent who can breathe a sigh of lief because of our Christmas hampers, the individual who finds wamth and a friendly face at Saint Clare's on a Sunday rrKJrning. and the shoppers vtho support our mission at our new Montsgue Street shop. Christmas 2025 and our aftemth)n tea with Santa event hit a chord wrth all of our volunteers as a stark reminder of why do our work and even more so as to why our services are needed now nre than ever. I will do ry best to re* the event vthich happened in the paragraph below. Upon arrival at our hub. we give all of the chik1ren a letter to wrile to Santa, and on finished. it is then popped into Santa's postbox for a special delivery. We have seen quite few requests over the years. from whtte socks for school to something my family and I can do together, but none htt us as hard as the words written by Iwo litde tsw"n girfs who had not requested the latest doll, bike or toy but had both vffltten 'foc(I' on their individual letters. This left our leam deeply upset- wtth a realrty check that hrl hard. They say that from the mouths of babies comes great truth. This left us with another Christmas mission. A hunt began to find the famivs address. a$ ¥ had handed out inviies to other local help groups. SHOUT WSK needed to ensure that a hamper wrth k)ts of goodies and grfts for the children arrived in time for Christmas. We managed to do this rnLh to the relEf and delMJht of all of the volunteers. Not only Ihal, but Dan from Nandos. after hearing what had happened. stepped in and Provided a beautiful grft that keeps on giving. A voucher that allows the family lo have fcrt)d whenever they need OT are hungry. It will carry on until "Santa says so" This shows the connection and communty Cohesion that our chanty has beconE part of and built. It reflects all of the volunteers and those who stepFed in to assist. Thank you from the bottom of my heart is all I can say. The children's faces when Ihe grfts and hamper Vre delivered were PrlesS, and yes, this is exactly why we will still be here for those In need in our community. Work which we can onty do with your supporL Adapting to the Need This year required us to be nN)re agile than ever. We made the difficult but necessary decision to transOn our food pantry and communty fridge to a 4-day-a-week model. This move ensured that we could maintain a high-qualty. consistenl supply for t presentaon8 we received this year. including the 220 families who rety on food on the table for their children. ut We also evolved our Christmas tradtbons. Moving our holMJay meal to the WSK us to create a more personal. "dropin" sanduary. It was an honour to cook for our
