Like many voluntary. community and soclal enterprise organisation5 this meant that once again we had to be flexible in the way we responded to the changin8 sltuatlon. On a positive rM)te, we felt we were much better prepared than in the previous year. Whilst the first lock- down was a shock and required dramatk transforniation, this time around we were more or8anised and had planning in place to better deal with the restriction& We were able to retsin our 2 employees and Indeed increased the Projert Worke¢s hours to 30 hours per This was divlded between running the dropin cafe116 hrs) and befriendIn￿h0Me visits (14 hrs).

Con5tlwilon The East Neuk Frail Elderly Project is an unincorporated d￿rfty having been estsblished under its conStitut￿n in 1998. It is a recognised charity under ref¢￿ThCe SC028325. StNrture The tharity is run by a management committee consisting of not less than five. and not more than flfteen, members of the East Neuk Frail Elderly Project. induding the Honorary Offi￿rS of Chairperson and Treasurer. Representatives of local authorities, government departments and other statutory authorities are invofved as advisers but have no voting rights. The management committee holds a minimum of five meeting5 per year, and Ruby Udi)tti, the Prohect Officer. carries out the secretsrlal dutles on behalf of the Project. Adwsers to the management committee are: C.P.N. Fife Counci Hea an Soclal Care Link Officer. The Project has been unable to attratt a Treasurer since November 2020 and is concemed about our Inability to attrart interest in this position. Governance All members of the management committee are appointed annually at the Annual General Meeting IAGMI. They hold office for a year until the followlng AGM and are then eligible for re-election. The management committee may fill any casual vacancy. and any person $0 appolnted shall hold office until the next AGM; the management committee has the power to c(popt two additional Committee members. Ch?rltsble Purposes The purposeof the Project is: To relieve the poverty and dtstress of. advance the edtjcation of. and promote the welfare of, the frail dderly in the East Neuk of Fife. particularly those who are isolated. To provide or assist in the provision of facilities for recr&ion and other leisure time occupation in the Interests of social welfare so that the conditions of life for the frail elderly may be improved. The Project Wishes tt> acknowledge the Invaluable support provided by Frfe thjnal, Health & Soclal Care Partnershlp, without whose financial support we would have been unable to meet our objectlves. AGM The current members of the commlttee were duly elerted at the AGM via zoom on 8 December 2021. 40 cdling nOti￿S were sent out. but unfortunately the majNity of our Ser41￿ users do not Use digit31 means and therefore ￿re able to attend. However, the Projert dld give everyone the opportunity to vote by proxy. There were 9 zoom attendees and l ap(IoBy. The Chalrperson infornied those present of his conorns al)out the continuing viability of the Projert. The meeting agreed to call a Special General Meettng (SGM) on 12 January 2022 to discuss thls very important matter and to inform the meeting of the condusion drawn bythe committee at its management meeting

on the 8 December 2021: this was to propose the dissolution of the charity at the end of the current financlal year {31 Mar 221. Speclal General Meetln8 The SGM was held on 12 January 2022, wlth 9 members attending and 8 providing apologie5. 66 members a55ociated with the Projert had been contacted and given the opportunity to vote on the closure proposal. All had been informed that a non-repky would signrfy acceptance. The main factors to Influen￿ the committeds thlnkin8 were: Many servlce users were very wary of returning to a group sessEon, even the twlce-weekly dropin cafe attracted only a small handful. The management and administratNe overheads which fell on the Project Offi￿r were getting out of proportlon compared with the small size of the projecL It was proving imp055ible to attrart volunteers to join the management committee-there were currently 3 Va￿nCle$. The Treasurer position had been Yacant since Novernber 2020. The Project Officer wished to retire in 2022. No committee member wished to tske on the Project Offi￿r role. The Proposal was a¢￿pted bythose in atteThdan￿ * the S6M, with 66 in favour of the proposal and I agalnst. The Proposal to dlssdve the Easl Neuk Frail Elderly Project by l Apr 22 was therefore carried. Chan8es to Ser¥i¢es. Sadly, due to the parKlemic the weekly lunch dubs.

The Pmject was able to devebp and stsrt a Dropin Cafe which commenced on 6th May 2021 with tight covid restriction5 in place. We provided a tivio weeklycafe on a Tuesday (2pm-4pm) and on Thursday {11am- 3pm) at the Anstruther LowerTown Hal. supported by a team of 10 volunteers on a 3 weekly rota b35i5. The volunteers wore appropriate PPE, completing the customer screenlng questions and took their temperatures on entry. The Dro￿1￿ Cafe accommodated up to twenty customers. but once summer had passed we Saw by the autumn that the number of customers attending was reducing: durin8 the winter months we were averaging only 6 customers per session. To try to combat this trend, in early September we or8anised tran5POrt la -Go Aexibus") on a Tuesday and an RVS minibus on a Thursday* hoping this might encoura8e a 8reater take up of customers. However, we b￿rne aware of a growing hesitation and reluttance by customers to both don face masks at the Café's entry point and to retain soclal distancing. Addl￿onalty, the Trustees remèin concerned about the falling number of seNice users attendin8 and vtho are now dislnclined to attend the dropin café.
