LLANDAFF DIOCESAN MOTHERS’ UNION
The Purpose of the Mothers’ Union is to be especially concerned with all that strengthens marriage and Christian family life.
The Aim of the Society is the advancement of the Christian religion in the sphere of marriage and family life.
To carry out this Aim and the Objectives of the Mothers’ Union are:
-
To uphold Christ’s teaching on the nature of marriage and to promote its wider understanding.
-
To encourage parents to bring up their children in the faith of the life of the Church.
-
To maintain a world-wide fellowship of Christians United in prayer, worship, and service.
-
To promote conditions in society favourable to stable family life and the protection of children.
-
To help those whose family life has met with adversity.
Membership is open to all who:
(i) Have been baptised in the name of the Holy Trinity.
- (ii) Declare their support for the aim and objectives of the Society.
Responsibilities of the Trustees
They shall debate, consider, and determine all matters of policy and strategy to be affected
on behalf of Llandaff Diocesan Mothers’ Union.
They shall manage and supervise the finances of the Society and review and evaluate the work of the Society.
They shall receive, consider, and respond to all resolutions received from the Diocesan Council.
Procedures are in place for the regular training of Trustees to ensure good practice and awareness of their responsibilities. Training is also given to Deanery and Branch officials at regular intervals.
Risk Management
The Trustees confirm that the major risks to which the charity is exposed, as identified by the Trustees, have been reviewed and systems have been established to mitigate those risks.
Reserves Policy
The Trustees have reviewed the reserves of the Charity. This review considered the nature of the income and expenditure streams, the need to match variable income with fixed commitments and the nature of the reserves. The review concluded that to allow the Charity to be managed efficiently we should aim to keep reserves at their present level, which equates to approximately 12 months of charitable expenditure also bearing in mind our A.F.I.A. project which puts a high financial demand on our expenditure. During 2019, the Trustee Board took the decision to retain current reserves to enable the Charity to be managed efficiently.
Organisation
Llandaff Diocesan Mothers’ Union is autonomous and is one of the sixty-six federated Mothers’ Union Charities in the British Isles. As such it operates in conjunction with the central charity of the Mothers’ Union at Mary Sumner House, 24 Tufton Street, London, SW1P 3RB. The
Charity has over 4 million members in 84 countries and lobbies local and national government on issues affecting family life and campaigns to change legislation, where necessary.
Llandaf Diocese Mothers’ Union
The Llandaff Diocese Mothers’ Union is managed by the Board of Trustees which comprises the Diocesan Secretary and Diocesan Treasurer, Diocesan Chaplain (non-elected) a Diocesan President, three Vice Presidents each representing an Archdeaconry, three elected Trustees one from each Archdeaconry and four elected Unit Coordinators. The Units are Faith and Policy, Marketing, Action and Outreach and Finance and Administration. These Units are run by the elected Coordinator and have Trustees and members who act as Unit Advisors undertaking the work of each Unit.
Following a new Mothers’ Union (Central Charity) Constitution passed in 2018, the Llandaff Diocese Mothers’ Union Constitution was updated and ratified, conforming to the amended Rules and Regulations therein, in 2019.
In 2021 there were 80 Branches and 1533 members of the Mothers’ Union in the Diocese. A few members choose to become Deanery or Diocesan members, and do not belong to a specific Branch.
The organisation, whether at Diocesan, Deanery or Branch levels aims to reach out to those in need of all ages and especially with families and married couples. Members raise funds for use at local, national, and international levels.
All the work is underpinned by Prayer and the membership is involved in a range of Prayer and Worship events across the Diocese. This work is supported by the Mothers’ Union Chaplain, Revd. Sandra Birdsall.
Llandaff Diocese is linked with five Overseas Dioceses and attempts to keep in close touch with them.
To enable all members to be well informed, a publication named ‘In Touch’ is produced which includes all up to date news on projects and Branch Life. This was distributed four times a year.
The website, namely mothersunionllandaf.org. is constantly updated and is favourably viewed by members. There is a Facebook account to keep members updated with news and events.
During 2021 the Trustee Board met frequently on Microsoft Teams or on Zoom in response to the Coronavirus pandemic and its impact on the charity; Deanery Leaders and Officers meetings were held, to disseminate information to branches and members. In 2021 it was not possible to hold a Diocesan General Meeting due to Government restrictions and many members not being able to access the internet. The individual Units met on Zoom a regular basis to undertake the work of the Charity through its many initiatives and to ensure that communication is kept at its highest level. A report from each Unit is presented at the Trustee Board meeting.
All Trustees have signed the Trustee Code of Conduct produced by Mothers’ Union. In addition, a Deanery Leaders Code of Conduct was produced and has been signed by all Deanery Leaders.
The Trustees have considered the requirements of the Charity Commissioners regarding public benefit and are satisfied that the activities of the Llandaff Diocesan Mothers’ Union meet these requirements.
Highlights
During March 2020, members of the Trustees were trained on the use of Microsoft Teams by the IT department of Mothers’ Union Central Charity. This proved beneficial in enabling members to communicate during the first lockdown.
The purchase of a Zoom account, with a subscription which is renewed annually, enables greater communication across the Diocese, as Microsoft Teams was limited to Trustees and did not address the needs of members. The Zoom account enables Units, Deaneries and Branches to meet and communicate effectively throughout the year.
A Digital Virtual Volunteering project was set up to support members and members of church congregations with developing IT skills through the loan of devices. This was to enable those who could not access the internet to communicate with others and follow church services. In 2020, four Apple iPads and 11 mobile Wi-Fi units were purchased in conjunction with Digital Communities Wales through a Pathfinder project. Four iPads were also purchased by Llandaff Diocese to support the project. The project continued throughout 2021.
Twice weekly devotions were produced by our Mothers’ Union Chaplain, Revd. Sandra Birdsall, and these were distributed throughout the Diocese by email, Facebook and our website and through the post to support and keep in contact with members.
Ongoing Projects:
(1) ‘Away from it All’
This is our main project but unfortunately, we were unable to offer holidays to families in need due to the pandemic and government regulations. The impact of the Coronavirus pandemic also saw a lack of fundraising for the caravan. Despite this we were offered a favourable trade in price for our caravan in order to purchase a new caravan and the Charity agreed to purchase a new Caravan at Parkdean Caravan Park, Trecco Bay, Porthcawl in 2021. This provides families who have met with adversity or have suffered traumatic events, to a week’s holiday, free of charge. Members give their time freely and work tirelessly to raise funds, as this project relies entirely on the membership plus any ‘sponsored’ events that may arise. The season lasts for approximately 30 weeks, with one family a week given a free holiday. The families are sponsored and recommended to us due to their circumstances, for consideration. Families receive a supermarket voucher of £25 to purchase basic essentials at the start of their holiday.
During the 2021 holiday season 18 families benefited from a holiday in the caravan. A breakdown of statistics shows that 42 Adults (>55 = 12, <55 = 30), 34 children (13+ = 4, 12= 30), 6 Single parent families ,22 Adults with physical or mental health problems and 11 Children with physical or mental health problems benefitted from an Away From It All Holiday.
The Open Week at the Caravan is held each July for members to visit and see the facility for themselves, and this occurred in 2021.
(2) Prison Work
Volunteers continue to attend and support the children’s play area and creche at Parc Prison Bridgend and Llandaff Mothers’ Union was successful in obtaining a grant to purchase toys for the play area once again but due to the pandemic the children’s play area was closed and no volunteering took place in 2021.
(3)Wedding Fairs
The Action and Outreach Unit have reached out to the community by promoting Christian Marriage at Wedding Fairs throughout the Diocese but this was not possible due to COVID restrictions.
(4) Outreach Work
A range of projects exist across the Diocese, and these continued to be severely affected by the Coronavirus. Members were highly creative and supported need in the community by various craft projects – knitting hearts for COVID patients, sewing scrub bags and masks, supporting food banks and supporting members, especially those who were isolated and lonely due to shielding through phone contact.
- (5) During 2021 there were approximately 100 Indoor Members. These members are unable to attend monthly branch meetings, due to their disability or circumstances but benefit by being kept in touch by letter twice a year. They also receive Easter/Christmas cards which also includes a letter from the Worldwide President each time.
(6) The Faith and Policy Unit organised and held some worship events, many of which were online.
The Annual Wave of Prayer was provided for members to follow in their own homes or follow online. The unit provided an effective contribution to the 16 Days of Activism Campaign in November was held online.
Future Plans
It is the Trustees’ wish that the Charity continues to undertake its Faith and Worship, Action and Outreach and Marketing functions but with the uncertainty of lockdowns, different variant strains of the Coronavirus and government regulations it has proved difficult to plan for 2022 but all agree with the need to move cautiously and plan for events as circumstances allow.
The Trustees agreed the accounts on 6 September 2022.
