Principal activities of the company

Company activities and impact Bristol Tree Craft is a nature-based mental health and community-led climate action service. We use traditional hands-on crafts and nature connection to support people in growing confidence, community and environmental stewardship. Inclusivity and empowerment are our core: we work closely with other community organisations to facilitate underserved groups' access to green space and foster their agency and creativity through craft. Whilst some services are open to anyone, our main target groups are at-risk youth, refugees/asylum seekers and those recovering from addiction. All our services are designed to deliver our 3 core aims: 1. Combating social isolation. 2. Improving mental health. 3. Platforming creative pro-environmental action. During the 2024 financial year, the company ran 74 workshops with 8 different community organisations, reaching a total of 408 beneficiaries. This is a 19.35% increase on workshops being run compared to 2023 total of 62 workshops and a decrease of 9.73% of beneficiaries reached compared to 2023 total of 452 beneficiaries. Consultation with Stakeholders The needs of the local community drive every aspect of our operations and organisation culture – indeed, our company was a response to locally expressed demand, emerging through a series of consultations and free drop-in sessions. We continually consult our service users about how we can meet their priorities, ensuring their voices drive our project by: 1. Giving every participant a chance to say what they did or didn’t like at the end of each session and inviting requests for future sessions. During some programmes, we plan the first 2-3 sessions, leaving the remainder open to plan with participants. 2. Running interactive, nature-based participatory feedback exercises. 3. Conducting one-to-one interviews with participants and their family members. 5. Using our ‘Tell Us Tree’ to gain continuous written feedback and direction from participants. 6. Hosting a Volunteer Scheme, inviting suggestions and holding reviews to ensure our volunteers have opportunities to shape our service and are feeling supported in their role. Director’s Remuneration The total amount paid or receivable by directors in respect of qualifying services was £43,848.00 (2023: £36,915.99). There were no other transactions or arrangements in connection with the remuneration of directors, or compensation directors’ loss of office, which require to be disclosed.
