2024 Trustees Report 16 October 2025
2024 was a normal period for Church Stretton Neighbours Care Group (CSGN). As with most years several of our volunteers retired with your thanks for their contribution and we managed to recruit several new faces.
The Treasurer reported on the healthy state of our finances and as a result we were able to provide a contribution to the local food bank.
Our constant search for volunteers continues and we have a gentle trickle of new and welcome faces to deliver our services.
We have transitioned our telephone journey booking system from analogue to digital and this has been well received by coordinators and clients alike and is working well.
During 2024 our three core activities of driving clients to medical appointments throughout the West Midlands, delivering Mayfair Meals and providing a Friday Lunch Club have continued to function effectively.
Driving: Our volunteers undertook over 500 journeys to and from medical appointments Mayfair Meals: We delivered over 6,500 meals
At the 2024 AGM The new Chairman, Andrew Middleton was appointed and later in the year the Trustees appointed Pauline Lupton as our new Secretary.
The review of CSGN policies and procedures has continued through 2024.
Now in our 56th year CSGN remains a vital asset in support of the Stretton community.
