January 2019 Our minds, our selvesIt can sometimes be difficult to do new things, especially if you are in poor physical or mental health. When you are ready to take the first steps out, we can help, with services to help prevent you from being lonely, even if it’s difficult to go out. We can support you to get the shopping you choose, whether it’s baked beans and sausages, or organic mangoes!

Supported shopping enables members to go and choose fresh food themselves.

July 2019 Chair’s reportAnother year of progress. Another year passing, amazingly quickly. A year ago, the BEA Board signified its intention to take on the management of Bramley Community Centre. Well we did! BEA took possession in January and so far, fingers crossed, we have made a very good fist of it. It‘s fair to say we have injected new life into a community asset, and built BEA services around it. Using it as our base, BEA is firmly in the centre of Bramley. Hopefully we can further contribute to enriching Bramley residents’ lives - not just BEA members, important though they are, but for all of the community. We are aiming to develop the centre to become, in time, the ‘go to’ place in this part of Leeds.

I should also say a word about OWLS, our slightly smaller cousin in Headingley, where again we have been focussing on widening and improving the scope of services, exemplified by the acquisition of the big yellow bus.

It is vital that the Board acknowledges the incredible support BEA/OWLS receives from all manner of folk; from the dedicated, proficient hardworking staff, the amazing band of volunteers, and the continued support of the City Council and other funders. Without this BEA could not function as it does, and the Board extends its heartfelt thanks for yet another productive year.

General Manager’s reportThe work of the Jo Cox Loneliness Commission, jointly chaired by our Patron Rachel Reeves MP, has helped put the work of organisations like BEA and OWLS in the public eye. BEA was set up in 1994, in response to people returning from hospital to loneliness. Since then we have developed an increasing range of preventative health activities. In recognition of our contribution to tackling loneliness, BEA was invited to a Downing Street reception in January 2018 with the Prime Minister, to celebrate the work of the Jo Cox Loneliness Commission and the appointment of the first ever Minister for Loneliness.

Leeds City Council will be investing in BEA and OWLS for another five years. This news is further testimony to the Council’s forward thinking and the good work of the Neighbourhood Network Schemes. We have a duty to make the very best use of this funding and we will continue to improve effective and efficient use of all our resources.

The Board and staff have also been working on the strategic direction of the organisation and we have decided to try and work ‘deeper’ with local older people. In order to undertake this additional work, we will need additional resources. For instance, we would like to continue and extend the work of the Time to Shine funded Community Social Worker.

Part of our mission is to ‘promote the value of older people in the community’ and our custodianship of Bramley Community Centre is further evidence of the value of elders. We are aware that many older people are making a positive difference to our community and we plan to encourage more to do so.

Lee Ingham, General Manager

This year included a very generous financial legacy from the late Jack Dyson, which we will put towards a replacement minibus, and two separate donations of mobility scooters!

Looking forward together

to the next five yearsWe are absolutely delighted to report that Bramley Elderly Action now has more financial stability than is ever possible for many voluntary or community organisations. Leeds City Council agreed in August to continue funding the 35 pioneering ‘Neighbourhood Network schemes’ which support older people throughout the city, for the next 5 years. We manage two of these networks – BEA, in Bramley, Swinnow and parts of Stanningley; and OWLS in Burley, Headingley, Hyde Park, Little Woodhouse and parts of Kirkstall. The stability for us means that our members can also be confident of the stability of continued support and activities for at least the next five years.

The increased funding comes as loneliness and social isolation, among people of all ages, has become more and more recognised as having a major impact on people’s health and wellbeing as a whole. In fact, research has shown that lacking social connections is as damaging to our health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day*. Our Patron, Rachel Reeves MP, has been at the forefront of this issue through her work on the Jo Cox Loneliness Commission, recognised by the appointment of Tracey Crouch MP as the world’s first Minister for Loneliness.

However isolated we may be and we may feel, none of us is an island. We are all part of larger communities. Taking on the management of Bramley Community Centre over the last year has helped increase our capacity to continue to support individuals, while supporting the development of the whole community – goals which are inextricably linked.

We look forward to the next five years and beyond, together.
