South and East Tyrone Welfare Support Trustees, Report The trustees, Ivho are directors for ihe purposes of company law, present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended J l March 20?5. Objectives and activities Our activites are of public benefit as we provide welfare support and financial support to individuals who are suffering loss and who are suffering psy¢hologi¢ally and financially. We strive to work with an und¢r-repr¢sented group and have developed a range of initiatives which support such affected individuals which leads to increased social inclusion and increased involement in the community. We promote and hold activites such as counselling, stress management etc to encourage individuals to impmve their general health and wellbeing which facilitates victims or survivors to become happier, healthier 2nd more fulfilled cizens. We also operate a befrtending service which will encourage individuals who are house-bound. ill and who are isolated to still be active within the community and to remain an integral part of the Community. We actively seek to improve the lives of individuals who have been injured or bereaved through no fault of their own. We help to rebuild self li'orth and self esteem among victims and survivors. Further benefits are that financial and economtc deprivation is reduced for the b¢nficiaries through access to advi¢¢ Services and olher interventions. Victims can be empowered through increased education and increased awareness of the active role they can play within mainstream so¢iety. This in turn leads to a strong community spirit and the empowerment of the victimslsurvivors to lead a¢tiv¢ and healthy lives, A core aspect of the work of the organisation is the furtherdnce of human rights of the innocent vcitims and survivors of terrorism and oth¢r 'Trouble related violenc¢'. The organisation pursues opportunities to have issues raised through various strata ensuring that policy 15 developed in accordance with the needs of those to which it primarly effects promoting more equality and reconciliation and ensuring that a historically marginalised group of vietimslsurvivors are supported in having their rights represented and ￿rthered. thus reducing social inequalties. This also has benefits to the wider community in furtherance of a more peaceful and more whesive society. These benefits are demonstrated through obtaining ¢valuation foms for all activities and also asking some participants to feedback to committee meetings orally on both the positive and negative aspects of any activity so that we can use the feedback to plan future event5 and ensure they meet the needs of the beneficiaries. There is no harni flowing from our purposes and we mitigate the possibility of hann by ensuring that appropriat¢ signposting takes place to professionally trained counsellors and advisors on specific areas Such as welfare to ensure that the advi¢e and guidance received is appropriate and beneficial. The charity's beneficiaries are primarily ex-servicemen, who were affected as a result of terrorism and troubles in Northern Ireland, and member organisations representing the interests of th¢se individuals but are also the wider publie by Creating more public awareness of the issues facing such individuals. The only potential private benefit flowing from this purpose is that the trustees can benefit as a beneficiary but would benefit in the saTne ivay as any other beneficiary would not get any preferential treatment. This is inGidental in furthering the overall purpose and only applicable if they fall within the class of beneficiaries. Page 2
