This past year Spider Project CIC has continued to support a large number of people either in crisis, with mental health difficulties or with recovering from addiction to substances including alcohol. We help anyone 18+ from across the Wirral community. Our Crisis Services/Cafes Campaneros and Cafe 71 in both Wirral and Chester are open from 10am-10pm every day of the year, including all bank holidays. Individuals can present with any form of emotional or psychological crisis and we support people with a whole host of issues including but not exclusive to bereavement, redundancy, long term health problems, suicidal ideation, anxiety and depression and relationship issues. Our original Spider service, operating from Hamilton street has continued to support people with addiction issues and/or mental health issues. We have 150-200 referrals every month to each crisis cafe as well as a rolling membership of 400-500 people in each cafe. We have a rolling membership of 200 people in Spider, Hamilton street with new referrals of 25-30 every month. Our Creative Recovery programme has run throughout the year across all 3 of our sites in Wirral and Chester. The programme offers creative, holistic, physical and educational activities as well as employment courses, workshops and outward bound trips. All our members have the opportunity to benefit from the wide range of activities on the timetable and we offer over 40 activities every week. We support people with a whole host of issues, including housing, welfare, unemployment as well as mental health and addiction issues. Over the last year we have continued with responding to hardship issues by distributing hampers with food and household essentials as well as hosting community meals. In addition to this we have continued with SILK, our family and carers’ support service. This is for anyone affected by a loved one, family or friend with addiction issues. Through this service, we offer 1-1, group work, creative recovery courses and telephone support. As well as supporting people in Spider we also refer to a network of services, including other mental health support services, clinical services, employment support, housing and foodbanks.
Our main stakeholders are the people who use the service for support i.e. our members. Spider is a member-led organisation and therefore we ask for regular feedback and input from our members in order to shape the service to be what they want and need it to be. We do this through forums, surveys and questionnaires as well as having suggestion boxes where members can write down ideas either named or anonymous. We have 60-70 volunteers across the 3 sites of Spider. The majority of them are former members and therefore have good insight and experience to help start new initiatives and develop Spider going forward. They have regular 1-1s with the Volunteer Coordinators as well as volunteer meetings where any concerns or new ideas can be discussed. The volunteers are important stakeholders with whom we have regular consultation. The commissioners and funders are also stakeholders who we are in regular consultation with through monthly meetings and through the construction and development of monthly reports for all the services we offer. In addition to this we have a Board of Directors, 40 staff and around 15 sessional staff, all of whom have a key input into the running of Spider and the company’s activities.
