TAG has been awarded over £30,000 by the Richmond Community Fund to start a new outreach service. TAG will be facilitating free fun and engaging activities for other local organisations.
We have been busy looking at the costs of our residential trips. Our trips are always subsidised and have been fortunate to have received additional funding in 2018 and 2019 but long term this cannot guaranteed. We’re pleased that subsidies will continue in 2020, however we are proposing the following new price structure to ensure we can cover the costs to the charity:
£250 per person. For those on low incomes, there will be the opportunity to apply for a additional subsidy. We want as many young people to have the opportunity to come away with us and have an action packed short break.
£250 per person who requires their own PA to attend. There will be no charge for the PA.
£400 per person who require TAG to provide 121 support during trip.
Our aim in 2020 will also be to look at additional funding and take part in fundraising activities to be able to reduce the £400, 121 cost to £250 so there is a one price structure for all.
Tonight 36 young people attended our Chilly Olympics night. We enjoyed snowboarding on our simulator and we took part in some races and did some arts and crafts.
34 young people completed our end of session evaluation with everyone depositing a green disc.
