The trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefft. hlevements and perlom)ance The first year of the project has been about establishing the parish nursin8 service and buildin8 connections with clients, GP surgeries and community groups. The first Parish Nurse was appointed in June 2023, and has visited and established regular contsct wlth community groups such as local lunch clubs. churches. the auction mart and various interest and support groups. She has also worked hard to partner with local GP
surgeries and so¢lal prescribers, enabling referrals both ways, and Cating opportunities to work together to support clients, Dverall heafth and wellbeing, rather than addressin8 issues separately. resulting in better Dutcomes for clients. At the time of reportin& nineteen clients in the Teesdale area had contart with the Service, fourteen of these were receiving ongoing support from the Parish Nurse,. the others had been referred on to other service5 Or no longer required support due to improved mental health. In March 2024 a second Parish Nurse was employed. at the time of reporting, they were beglnning to make contacl with organisations and individuals in Weardale. The servite has become well integrated into the local support netWoS and the Impact of the support for individua15 has a150 helped families of those receiving care from the service. The education around self- help provided by the nurses has improved the resilience of users of the service. The open*nded nature of the support provided ha5 allowed for a greater or lesser intensity of engagement, helping people to better manage their own mental health, knowing that support will continue to be available on a when-required basis. The aims for the next year include recruitment of a volunteer team to help with some of the non-medical aspects of support that clients require. such as assistance to access activities or shop5, and general listening and befriendin8 on an ongoing b35i5.
