## **Chair’s report for AGM 22nd April 2025 for Year end Dec 2024** 

2024 was another successful year for the Green Island Holiday Trust following John LeVesconte’s takeover of the Co-ordinator Role in April 2024. 

We face a continual challenge in finding sufficient numbers of volunteers to man our holidays. We ran five successful weeks of holidays in May, June and September providing holidays for 25 disabled adults. 

Our relationship with Wraxall Yard, our holiday venue, remains excellent and supportive. Following feedback from our holidaymakers and volunteers there is now a defibrillator on site and a new mobile hoist. 

We held a successful training day in April attended by 20 volunteers. Updated medication administration forms were demonstrated, we familiarised ourselves with the new mobile hoist and our new safeguarding policy was discussed and distributed. 

During the year John LeVesconte and the Chair attended a webinar on volunteer recruitment and we hope to apply some of the strategies that were described. 

Fundraising remains another challenge. Our annual Golf Day was extremely successful and we held a Colours Fashion Show which also raised a significant amount for the Trust. 

Our ambition remains to run 6 weeks of holidays each year thus providing 30 people with a holiday. 

We will be looking to appoint a new Co-ordinator from September. 

I would like to thank John LeVesconte for his great work as Co-ordinator and all the Trustees for their wonderful work in their respective roles.
