## **REGISTERED CHARITY NUMBER 1192944** ## **ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE PERIOD TO 31 DECEMBER 2021** ## **Chair Report to year end December 2021** Pershore Wellbeing Hub was incorporated as a charity on 31[st] December 2021 meaning that this report covers our first year of operation. By February we had a team of 6 Trustees who approved a business plan, which contained key goals for our first year: - Recruit team of volunteers - Deliver training programme for volunteers - Obtain marketing materials and equipment - Publicity to raise awareness - Ongoing review of goals & aims We also identified the following key points - Develop a Marketing Strategy - Create a web presence - Find a town centre location - Be a stand-alone agency with charitable status As chair I am proud to say that these 1[st] year objectives have all been met. It has been **a successful first year for Pershore Wellbeing Hub** . The year started with a working group meeting fortnightly via Zoom, due to the Pandemic Lockdown. As well as working on the above goals we also focused on fundraising to open our premises and develop the website to prove the concept originally envisaged in the town plan for a wellbeing hub. The Hub formally opened its doors on 23[rd] June 2021 with an official opening in November. Since opening our volunteer numbers increased allowing us to open 3 days per week. In the first 6 months of opening we had 658 visitors, with very positive feedback. Our website quickly became established at the top of Google searches and engagement has continued to grow. We have established strong links with the local NHS GP practices, social prescribing team, foodbank and community cupboard, local schools, the Riverside Youth Centre, Leisure centres, Rotary Club, and numerous local groups and organisations. Our origins lay with the Town Council, and we continue to have a council representative on our board of trustees. In addition, we have received much support and encouragement from Wychavon District Council who have funded the rent on our High Street premises. In summary, we have achieved our first year’s goals and proven that a need exists within our community for a Wellbeing Hub, free at the point of access, as well as demonstrating that our model does meet that need.
