Significant events
- “2024-25 was a year of significant change as we have worked to turnaround the financial deficits of the previous 2 years. Our NHS grant funding has not been increasing either in line with inflation or Agenda for Change pay awards and our grant funding does not reflect the extra activity we have been delivering.”
- “During the year ending March 2025, the Compassionate Communities network in northeast Essex, anchored by St Helena, has directly engaged more than 2,000 people in co-produced activities and reached over 20,000 others indirectly.”
- “In 2024-25, we welcomed two new additions, a general charity shop in Walton and our first-ever acquired café, Slice, located in Colchester town centre. Trading for the cafe is scheduled to begin in 2025-26.”
- “In December 2024, we launched our first-ever Superdraw which was a great success - generating an additional £372,891 in ticket sales and awarding two lucky winners with Christmas bonuses of £5,000 and £10,000!”
- “As part of the strategic review of the group's activities, the directors are considering longer term plans for the company. The company is not expected to trade in 2025-26.”
- “The decision was made for the company to terminate its franchise agreement on 31 March 2025 for St Helena Creative Services C.I.C.”
- “We have made the difficult decision to pause plans for a new hospice facility with a potential care home and retail offer at a new site. These ambitions remain important to us but are not financially feasible in the current climate.”
- “The new restructured service has sadly resulted in eleven redundancies, those being a mix of voluntary and compulsory; the redundancy numbers were minimised by swift action being taken in the autumn of 2024 when a recruitment freeze was put in place.”
