191010-2019-Annual-Report-Final Chairman's Statement 2018-2019 The difficult trading conditions continued during the year and the effect of losing the South Tyneside contract is plain to see in the audited accounts. Fortunately, NECA was aware that this situation could develop so was able to successfully manage the resulting reduction in income, therefore to return a small surplus is a very satisfactory result. The withdrawal of support by South Tyneside Council meant Ambassador House could not continue nor the blue light café on Beach Road. Fortunately NECA was able to reach an agreement with Karbon Homes to transfer the lease of Ambassador House to The Key Project at no cost to the Charity. I’d like to thank Karbon Homes for their valued assistance in facilitating this arrangement. On a positive note NECA was delighted to be chosen to run the pilot scheme for Hungry Britain. This involved the NECA Community Garden providing lunch and activities for children in South Tyneside during the school holidays. The pilot scheme was extremely successful and the event was rolled-out across other areas of the country. Thank you to South Shields MP, Emma Lowell-Buck for her involvement and valued assistance with this project. The NECA Community Garden was also extremely proud to be invited to take part in the Queens Commonwealth Canopy project. This involved planting trees to commemorate Her Majesty The Queen’s 65 years on the throne. Two saplings were planted in the garden by the Lord Lieutenant of Tyne & Wear, Mrs. Susan Winfield ably assisted by local schoolchildren. The success of those two events has encouraged the Trustees to widen the organisation’s remit so that it can offer services to the wider community and not just to those affected by drug and alcohol misuse, and gambling. Addiction services is what NECA is widely known for throughout the region and this will continue to be the main-focus of the Charity’s work. It is important that NECA can demonstrate that its work is of benefit to the community and projects such as those held in the Community Garden are a great example of that. Finally, as always I thank the staff for their hard work and members of the Executive Committee for their continued support and commitment to the organisation and for their expertise which is always freely given.

Page Sponsored by SINTONS 5 DARLINGTON The Darlington service covers 3 areas; Recovery & Wellbeing, SWITCH Young Peoples Service, and the Stop Smoking Service. Here are some of the events/campaigns and projects that have taken place throughout the year to aid client recovery and to promote these services. Stop Smoking Service Our Stop Smoking Service attended the Harbour Health and Wellbeing conference at the Northern Echo Arena providing information regarding quitting smoking. This was a well-attended event providing Harbour employees and volunteers with information about the service. We gave out a number of stop smoking support packs on the day. We spoke to a range of people regarding the service offering them advice about stopping smoking, how to help people who want to stop, and where to go for more help and support. SWITCH Young Peoples Service Every year SWITCH works in partnership with Learning Skills to provide a study programme for young people who may be vulnerable or at risk in the community. It is designed to help them successfully complete qualifications to then continue onto employment or further education. At the end of the programme we organised a poster competition and received a high volume of excellent entries. The winning poster was selected by the adult recovery group and the winner received a £10 retail voucher. Well done to this year’s winner, who will remain anonymous…. Page Sponsored by SQUARE CIRCLE BROKERS LTD 6 Recovery Allotments Roots to Recovery: Another successful year of growth at the allotment project Gardening is a wonderfully flexible medium that can transform lives. Our allotment sees first-hand how gardening can help everyone, regardless of age or ability. Projects undertaken include construction of a shed, path laying, poly-tunnels, landscaping, fence building and compost systems. Projects currently being worked on include a Gazebo for when shelter is required. The existing raised beds are being planted with a variety of flowers, plants and vegetables and the intention is for every aspect of the allotment to be used to help the clients on their road to recovery. “Rockovery” Music Group The music group “Rockovery” is testament to what can be achieved. It’s 7 year growth has seen it develop into an effective therapeutic provision. Facilitated by those in recovery and encouraging others, it is now a recognised intervention in the service and recovery community. “Rockovery” facilitated an alcohol awareness event at Darlington College to promote sensible alcohol consumption. Clients and volunteers provided input on the day with healthy alternatives to alcohol and advice and support available. There was an alcohol awareness quiz with students/ college staff. 114 quizzes were completed and the data fed back to the College, helping to identify gaps in alcohol awareness. The group played a brilliant 30 minute set of cover songs and the response was very positive. Songs played varied in style and all those involved said they felt proud of their accomplishment. Page Sponsored by STANDARD SECURITY SERVICE LTD 7 BE INVOLVED SUNDERLAND NECA in partnership with Sunderland City Council are committed to supporting a recovery focused approach to tackling drug and alcohol dependence to reduce the impact of substance misuse on the individual, their family or carer and the wider community. Page Sponsored by TOTAL BUSINESS GROUP 8 GAMBLING NECA, as one of the original partners of the Gamcare Partnership Network, continue to work collaboratively to develop services across the North East and North Yorkshire regions. We have successfully implemented the Models of Care framework over the last 12 months which has given us opportunity to offer a wider range of support to meet the needs of this particular client group. We are excited to be involved in future developments of services during 2019 including the launch of the Leeds Community Gambling Service. The Leeds service will be the first gambling support service of its kind and involves an ambitious collaboration between GamCare, NECA, the Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (LYPFT) and Leeds City Council. NECA’s part in the delivery and development of the Leeds Hub is a huge achievement and demonstrates the hard work and commitment that has gone into our regional Gambling service over the past few years.

  • Transport Policy Statement for Students Aged16-18 in Further Education and Continuing Students Aged 19 and Over
    Local Authority Transport Partnership Policy Statement 2014/15 Transport policy statement for students aged16-18 in further education and continuing students aged 19 and over Department Responsible: Children Adults & Families 1. Summary of Policy Statement and Main Objectives (this section should give an overview/statement of intent of what the LA’s transport policy is and what the subsequent desired outcomes are). This policy statement sets out the way in which South Tyneside Council has decided to exercise its powers and duties in relation to the provision of school and college transport for learners aged 16-19 in accordance with Section 509 of the Education Act 1996, as amended by Section 83 of the Education and Inspections Act 2006. The policy seeks to ensure that no South Tyneside learner is prevented from continuing in further education due to lack of transport provision or lack of financial support with transport costs. It outlines the provision of transport schemes and assistance for post 16 learners who live and study in South Tyneside or those learners who live in South Tyneside and attend an educational establishment outside of the Borough if it is the nearest provider offering the appropriate course. This document sets out the current policy of South Tyneside Council, which it should be noted could be subject to change in the future. Therefore, this policy does not amount to a legitimate expectation that any service currently offered will continue to be offered. This policy is based on the following key principles: • The promotion of increased independence and social inclusion of young people, recognising the context of their age and ability.

  • Tyne & Wear Archives Service
    Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums Archives Collection, Acquisition and Disposal Policy V1.3 Approved by JAMC 22 November 2012 Date for review:1/11/2015 Tyne & Wear Archives Collection, Acquisition and Disposal Policy Background A county archives service for Tyne and Wear was established in 1974 by Tyne and Wear County Council, on the foundation of the collections of the Newcastle Archives Office, whose remit was extended to cover the whole of Tyne and Wear. A branch archive was maintained in North Tyneside until 1988, when the collections there were centralised, and significant archive collections held by libraries and museums in the other Tyne and Wear local authorities have also been transferred to Tyne & Wear Archives over the years. Rationalisation of holdings has also taken place from 1974 with Durham County Record Office and Northumberland Archives, particularly (though not exclusively) in relation to the archives of local authorities and their predecessors. Introduction Tyne & Wear Archives accepts records for continuing preservation in accordance with its Collection, Acquisition and Disposal policy. This policy sets out criteria for selection decisions and also identifies material that falls outside the scope of the collection. For the purposes of this policy, archives are defined as an accumulation of records from an organisation or individual, which are no longer needed to conduct current business and which are selected for preservation because of the evidential and historical information they contain or as evidence of activities. Records are defined as including, but not restricted to, manuscripts, typescripts, maps, plans, drawings, photographs, digital records, sound and moving image recordings, printed works and any other formats that form an archive, or an integral part of an archive, of an organisation or individual.
