Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 30 September 2020
Objectives and activities
The charity's objects
The relief and education of children with disabilities by the provision of therapeutic educational and stimulating toys and equipment.
The charity's main activities
The Bradford Inclusive Disability Service (formerly Bradford Toy Library) provides a specialist toy and resource service to assist in the development of children with disabilities. Interesting weekly theme days and events for users are organised including an extensive Summer holidays and school breaks scheme. Also 'TEENZONE' a social skills group (11+), Friday Friends and a Carer's Support Group are part of our activities.
Public benefit statement
In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit.
Achievements and performance
We have had our usual busy summer, with our various activities.
Our Christmas pantomime went ahead with the help of Friends of St.Lukes and our mystery donor. We also were busy making big plans for our 45th birthday and relaunch party in January.
Our party was a great success, attendance included almost all of our families. We also had doctors, nurses, physiotherapist, occupational therapists and other staff members from St.Lukes as well as some of our funders.
We relaunched under our new name Bradford Inclusive Disability Service (BIDS), with great plans for the future.
Covid -19
In March 2020 lockdown happened and this has been our busiest time ever.
We have supported nearly 1,000 children and young people as well as their families.
Michelle and Emma have worked tirelessly to get Covid funding to help our members, which has been successful.
We have given over the last seven months food packages, toys, boredom buster packages and being a friendly voice over the phone.
We have new families joining our charity as more and more people need the help and support in these unprecedented times.
Our future plans are to continue with these packages until things hopefully return to normal.
At the time of signing these accounts the charity has been impacted by the global Covid-19 virus. The trustees have reassessed the charity’s ability to continue for at least 12 months from the date that the accounts are approved and conclude that no material uncertainties exist that cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to meet its liabilities as they fall due.
