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
The year 2020/21 was a difficult one due to Covid restrictions in place for most of the period.
We continued to deliver food packages, toys, and activity packages. In total we distributed over 1.5 tonnes of food, with 6,720 deliveries and interactions made. Activity packs were distributed to 1,680 children and young people with disabilities.
At Christmas we made 150 Santa Doorstop Deliveries, thanks to the hard work of Emma and Michelle and their husbands. These were received by some excited and animated children.
We were unable to host groups in the office but ran some activities via Zoom and later were able to accommodate them at other venues. Notably Beacon Community Church where we now hold the Teenzone, Kidzone and Friday Friends groups.
In Spring there was a brief lift in Covid restrictions and on 1 April we attended Shaw House for outdoor cooking. It was a huge success and it was nice to be able to have face to face contact with people.
Carers received a lovely pamper package and we had themed activities which included planting, cooking and baking. We also organised a Sports Day and Teddy Bears Picnic.
It was possible to open the office but with some restrictions and limits on the number of people allowed there at any one time.
On behalf of the Trustees I would like to take this opportunity to say a massive Thank You to Michelle, Emma and Cora for keeping the office going.
We would like to thank our many delivery drivers who have helped us and the kind generosity of some amazing funders.
Dough Baby have been brilliant making up and helping to deliver DIY pizza boxes and at Store House Soraya and Julie who worked hard to keep up with all the ideas the team had. We thank them all very much. Catrina Milne (Chair)
