In the space provided below, please insert a general account of the company’s activities in the financial year to which the report relates, including a description of how they have benefited the community. As a therapy organisation we consider our impact from varying perspectives. As therapists we think about the best way to observe and measure outcomes with each of our clients in order to provide them with the optimum support for their needs. Organisationally we want to measure how many people we have been able to reach and support through our services, and how effective our services are. Additionally, we have also been seeking to broaden our reach to help as many people as possible to understand about the power of music therapy. We do this through our social media, our trainings, and through attending and presenting at exhibitions and conferences. We are privileged to continue supporting clients across the ages - our youngest was 30 weeks and our oldest client was 100 years - and in a range of settings; in the community at home, in residential settings, in hospitals, in schools, in rehabilitation. Highlights from the year include: - Delivering session to over 1,466 clients and a total of 6,485 sessions. - Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Service : Delivering 126 sessions across neonatal wards to 76 infants and families. - Innovative Services: For example, provision of Neurologic Music Therapy at the Complex Rehab Unit at Chapel Allerton Hospital in Leeds; provision of music therapy services to grieving young people and to the British Home therapeutic community in South London for individuals with neuro-disabilities. - Training: Delivering 21 training events to over 450 attendees in person and across Chiltern’s new digital learning platform. - Inclusion: Continuing to develop and embed the role of the Chiltern Insight’s Group to include service users as an integral part of understanding how best we deliver services and shape the direction of the organisation. - Running a communications campaign highlighting Chiltern’s work with children and sharing knowledge and experience in this regard. - Environment: Continuing to reduce Chiltern’s carbon footprint with changes across how Chiltern carries out its work, including in respect of staff travel.
We have continued to evaluate and adapt the ways in which we meet with our stakeholders, to ensure that (our staff and our clients) have a voice in how the organisation develops. At the end of the financial year, the organisation had a team of over 40 staff, including Music Therapists, Community Musicians, and our operational team, which are made up of a number of roles supporting HR, finance, referrals and scheduling, communication and data and training coordinator. As a self managed and employee owned organisation, consultant with our staff as stakeholders is a key way in which Chiltern is managed and developed. The organisation has an Insights Group to ensure we are truly listening and responding to the needs of our clients and we measure reasons for referral to music therapy. We remain in touch with the current sector needs and research through engagement with external professional bodies and organisations across education, health, and social care in addition to projects with partner universities.
Directors’ remuneration during the year was £9,760.
