  • Our 2020-21 Annual Report
    ANNUAL REPORT [Company registered in Scotland number: 325854] [Scottish Charity Number : SC038980] Mearns and Coastal Healthy Living Network—Chairperson’s Report. What a year it has been – a year of challenges met and challenges overcome -, a combined effort by the Team, our volunteers, members, supporters, partners, donors, and funders. The Board and I are grateful to you and them for your continuing to support Mearns and Coastal Healthy Living Network and for being part of the Mearns and Coastal family. When we met for the Annual General Meeting (AGM) in November 2019, no one could have imagined how life would change before we gathered again for the AGM in February 2021. The ‘COVID-19’ pandemic, a virus few had heard of in 2019, dominated the year, and asked difficult questions of us all. Our Response Flexibility, determination, resilience, imagination, and a commitment to continue to work for the community were at the heart of Mearns and Coastal Healthy Living Network’s response. We found new ways of working at home and in the office and new ways of meeting on-line when we could not meet in person. Teams and Zoom calls became surprisingly familiar and effective, thanks in no small part to Steve Coles and Lynn Moir’s IT expertise. We maintained essential services (transport, home delivery shopping, gardening, and handy person) and adapted them to ensure the health and well-being of clients, volunteers, and staff. To tackle increasing social isolation in the community we add- ed new services to satisfy a growing need for keeping connected. The creation of the telephone service enabled Mearns and Coastal Healthy Living Network to reach more people not on-line, as did successful participation in the ‘Connecting Scotland’ programme, through which we distributed IT equipment and training to help people get on-line.
