Significant events
- “In the past year we have supported 1,811 people, comfortably exceeding our aim to double our client numbers from our 2021 benchmark of 788.”
- “the launch of a digital service in 2023; in the past year we have delivered 1,362 support interactions online, up over a third year on year.”
- “Fortunately our designated reserves pot, which was established for this eventuality, has helped to cover the resulting loss. Legacies is a highly unpredictable income stream, and our results in 2024 when compared to recent years, highlights the value and necessity of these designated reserves.”
- “a successful Swim for Hope across the Solent, a partnership with Harbour Hospitals, and the launch and sell out of a new Christmas Carol concert on the Isle of Wight.”
- “We were excited to open a new shop in Westbourne, our first in Dorset, and have been pleased by the solid results it has achieved in the first year.”
- “Towards the end of 2024, we were thrilled to finally identify a site that would be suitable for a new permanent home for the Bournemouth centre. A lease has been agreed from April 2025, and following a refurbishment, we expect to move into the new space by early June.”
- “During the year we took the decision to close our Andover 1-day per week drop-in support session, due to low numbers.”
- “During the year we delivered a total of 15,248 individual Daisy bus journeys (2023: 12,300).”
- “In 2024 we continued to roll out our new refreshed brand, which aims to more clearly articulate who we are and what we do, and be welcoming to people from the diverse communities in the region.”
- “The Board has grown further in 2024 and the diversification of skill set now more accurately reflects the needs of the charity.”
- “At the 31 December 2024 the Sarasin Investment portfolio had returned 11.4% since our initial investment on 8 August 2023, albeit a portion of that upside will have reversed in 2025 reflective of ongoing market volatility.”
