Communities, economies, governments and support systems for people continue to change and so too do CCS Disability Action regions, branches and teams. It is the preparedness of our teams to partner with people and take steps towards what is sometimes ‘the unknown’ that makes us proud to do the work we do.

WELCOME EVERYONE, its AGM time and once again we reflect on the year just past. We were half-way through our 80th year as an organisation and it was a time to celebrate locally and nationally.

In the south our 80th Celebration was on the 30th September, an “After Five” formal occasion held in Level One at the Kelvin Hotel. Mrs Pat Turnbull, our Patroness, cut the celebration cake and our guest speaker was Mervyn Gillick a very popular life member.

Our celebrations continued as we decided at our 80th AGM to award life memberships to two special ladies who have given great service to our Southland Branch over many years. Mrs Robin Dunlop (the chair of the Gilmore Lodge Committee) was very surprised to receive the first life membership. Robin also had the opportunity to present her Gilmour Lodge Report in person. Robin, in her report, said “Thank you Mr Gilmore for your foresight and generosity in establishing this wonderful facility for those in our communities with disabilities”.

Our second recipient was Mrs Janice Elder who served many years on the Northern Southland Sub-Branch and helped raise funds to benefit and support Gilmore Lodge. Janice is also a stellar supporter and advocate for our organisation and reminded us “to make sure we continue to communicate and

let our communities know about CCS Disability Action, who we are and how we continue to support people with disabilities”.

The year of celebrations rounded off with a national celebration in the form of a dinner at Te Papa in Wellington. I was very fortunate to attend and shared a great night chatting with my nationwide CCS Disability Action friends and guests from other organisations, who also support people with disabilities.

The big focus ahead for our organisation in 2016 was “The Gathering” held in Wellington on March the 8th and 9th and our LAC member Taylor Heads, along with Tony Kahukura, Vocational and Transition Service Coordinator, attended. The theme for this was “Karanga Maha – Many Voices” and had a specific focus on young people (16 to 30 years) – the next generation. Guest speakers were young and shared their experiences and achievements that showed that dreams can come true. (Currently our organisation is looking at the many issues ahead for the youth of today, such as education, jobs, independent and living choices.)

In my reports I often remind members to think about joining our Local Advisory Committee and this request is always ongoing. Unfortunately in February 2016 we accepted a resignation from one of our younger committee members, Alana

McLeod-Young who has been with us for many years. Alana, along with her mum Helen, (a former LAC Chair and now a life member) was heavily involved with the Christmas Trees Fundraising Events. We will miss Alana and wish her well in her future endeavours.

At the end of April we farewelled the Southern Regional Manager, Joy Gunn, who decided to make a career change that meant she could remain permanently in her home town Dunedin. We are very grateful to have met and worked with Joy as she helped the Southland Branch through many changes and ensured we are a viable branch that will survive well into the future. Joy was also a great help to the organisation nationally and we will miss her constant futuristic guidance, seeing challenges ahead of us and guiding us to find possible solutions.

Communication is the greatest tool we have to connect with the people we support. The Blog is a great tool on our organisation’s website and it shares many topical items, and invites one to add comments. Our President, Kim Willetts, provides information through her regular President’s letter and our CEO David Matthews does similar with his “The Momentum” newsletter. Our local Southern region also provides a newsletter “Southern Lines” and has lots of local content within.

In closing I thank my fellow committee members, Joy Pirie, Taylor Heads and Rochelle Jonker for their continued dedication and support as we work through our LAC duties. Thank you to our LEC Committee, Virginia Wilson and Kevin Wall for their support and great management of our branch’s financial wellbeing.

Thanks to Rachael Kooman and her team for all their hard work and great achievements over the past year and their continuing support and guidance for all involved with CCS Disability Action Southland. Special thanks go to our Administrator, Nicola White, whose services are appreciated and valued by the LAC Committee. On behalf of the LAC I also wish to thank Kim Willetts, David Matthews, Joy Gunn, Mel Smith and Hari-Priya Day for their support and guidance over this past year. We look forward to continuing on our governance journey.

Community Support

A GENEROUS BEQUEST enabled the branch to complete the 2015/16 financial year in credit to the extent of $144,942. Without bequests the branch would have sustained a deficit.

As always this financial year has required that vigilance be applied to the budget and the management of finances. For the monthly reporting that allows this to occur, we as a Committee are very grateful to Cliff Stephen, Regional Accountant. Cliff’s crucial oversight and the ability of Lyle Palmer, Funding Manager, to exceed his targets of funding support for the branch have continued to impress us this year.

This branch enjoyed the support of several funders recorded in this report. These generous contributions to our operational costs help to keep us afloat. In particular we note the significant funding we received from the Community Trust of Southland and the ILT Foundation. It is very pleasing that the work of CCS Disability Southland has, and we believe will continue to be recognised, appreciated and supported by so many.

It has been particularly pleasing to note how the work we do has steadily grown during the year. This growth assists us not only to maintain our government funding but also to grow that financial support where appropriate. Significant credit must go to Rachael Kooman, the team in Invercargill and Central Otago

and our Regional Manager for the way in which they have so positively represented the services of CCS Disability Action Southland.

Sadly we said farewell to Joy Gunn at our Regional Governance meeting in Dunedin in May. Preceding Mel as Regional Manager, Joy had made a significant contribution to our committee. More recently she had been seconded to National Office and although our contact with her was then less we continued to appreciate the contributions she was making to CCS Disability Action nationally. Robin Dunlop, as Chairperson of the Gilmore Lodge Committee, moved on this year, when she and her husband Noel shifted from Queenstown. Over many years both Robin and Noel gave sterling service to the management of Gilmore Lodge which has been of tremendous benefit to so many people and their families. Robin and Noel are sorely missed.

As a committee we thank Nicola White for the secretarial and administrative support she provides to us and to our meetings. Both Kevin and I consider it a privilege to serve CCS Disability Action Southland as members of the Local Executive Committee.

Regional Manager's Report

THERE ARE A lot of words that float around in your head when it comes time to write a report that summarises the work and essence of a branch, a region and the national organisation over the period of a year. CCS Disability Action has a vision that every person is included in the life of their whanau and community. The words that come to mind this year in light of that vision are – collaboration, focus on youth, quality of service and supports, building relationships and always being prepared to listen and adapt. In an ever-changing political and societal environment, being open and agile has become more and more important and therefore the skills of our team and the connections we all have in the communities in which we live and work have become more vital in our roles.

Over the past year we have started to see the rewards of moving to consistent quality and process over the three branches in the Southern region. The benefit has come in terms of the support being provided and the links being made in local communities. Putting a focus on training and understanding our core business and the things that make us the organisation that we are has, in turn, provided time and opportunity for members of the team to look at ways we can provide individualised and localised responses.

Whilst this year has been an occasion to continue to provide quality support, information and advocacy to disabled people and the Southern region communities we have also taken the opportunity to take a punt on some new activities as well. Teams in the region have piloted projects with families in Balclutha and Queenstown, supported young people to attend The Gathering in Wellington, increased the numbers of young people accessing the Transition Service in Southland, developed connections in all areas and moved targeted services into specific rural locations.

Over the course of the year nationally, the big excitement and innovation of the year has been The Gathering – Karanga Maha (Many Voices). With a focus on youth this event offered two days of presentations, workshops and conversations between leaders in the disability sector, government officials and most importantly young people and the leaders of tomorrow.

And as always this is an opportunity to give thanks for all those who have made this year the success that it has been.

Another Busy Year

KIA ORA KOUTOU KATOA It has been another very busy 12 months

for all Local Advisory, Local Executive and Local Committees throughout the Southern Region. Last year, we saw many excellent events held as part of our 80th celebrations and I would like to express my sincere thanks to all those involved who worked hard to ensure the occasion was marked appropriately throughout the region. As we reflect on last year’s celebrations and how far we have come, we also look forward to the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. I often ask myself “80 years on and what have we achieved?” There are many things we can be proud of such as increased inclusion of disabled people in society, better health services, increased opportunities in education and employment, the list goes on. But equally we still have a long way to go, I believe, until we can truly say that we live in a fully inclusive society.

With increasing demands on people’s time, it is fantastic that so many people continue to give their time and energy to supporting the work of CCS Disability Action throughout our Southern region which takes in the Waitaki, Otago and Southland branches. All Committees were represented at national and regional Governance Forums. I acknowledge the commitment of all those people who give their time to serve as governance for CCS Disability Action and thank you for your dedication.

I would also like to acknowledge Joy

Regional Representative's Report

Gunn who left our organisation to take up an exciting Community Development management position with the Dunedin City Council. Joy had been regional manager of Southern Region for three years and in the last year had lead our national work in Quality, Marketing, Fundraising and Communication. She made a real impact on our organisation both regionally and nationally.

Fortunately for us, Mel Smith has seamlessly transitioned into her new role. So, welcome Mel, we know our region is in good hands and look forward to building on our positive relationship.

I look forward to another challenging and exciting year ahead for our organisation and encourage you to get involved in your local committee to assist us achieve great things for disabled people, their whanau and hapu (communities).

Our Services

THE 2015/16 YEAR has been an exciting year for the national organisation and also for the Southland region. Along with our 80th celebrations this year we have continued the work we have built on over the previous 80 years as well as using the revelries to highlight new ventures and ways of working. The highlights of the year being the completion of a pilot project in the Queenstown area, supporting the nationally organised Gathering (Karanga Maha) in Wellington and moving services into the Gore district. Over this year we have had the opportunity to work with 151 people and their whanau.

This has been achieved through the provision of long held government contracts with the Ministry of Social Development and Ministry of Health. However there has also been an opportunity this year to invest in the community.

The Whanau First pilot in Queenstown created the space for families to work with a Coordinator to plan for the future, link to current community activities and support

and also utilise an individualised budget to achieve some things that have seemed out of reach. Those that participated have advised that once they had the relationship with the Coordinator and got ‘into the swing’ of spending the budget it was of benefit not only to their disabled child but also the whole family.

This year we have also continued to increase the numbers of young people we support in their transition from school and over the 12 months we have added further hours to the team to ensure we are able to continue to do this work well. This support has become a service we are seen to provide to a high standard both in Invercargill and also the Central Lakes area.

In May we made the move to have a Coordinator dedicated to work within the Gore District. This was an area that was identified by the team as requiring focussed attention and as a result we now have a Coordinator based in Gore for two days a week and as of the end of June his workload was already full.

CCS Disability Action is a nationwide organisation that provides support and advocacy for people with a disability.

We work in partnership with disabled people, families and whānau to have choice and control in their lives.Below is a snapshot of services and supports we have offered in the local community

Our Stories

Esther is 19 years old and attends Wakatipu High School in

Queenstown.Esther started working with Tracy

Henderson, the Central Otago Service Coordinator. Esther lives with her parents, brother and cat, Ozzie, in Arrowtown and she keeps herself very busy with school, singing, dancing and swimming. On top of this Esther was keen to get involved in some local workplaces to see what types of work she may be interested in after school.

Tracy and Esther organised for her to spend some time with Oddfellows Beauty Spa in Arrowtown. This started out being based in the spa itself and it recently extended to Esther helping out when the spa provided a treat at a local rest home. The work that Esther has done with the Spa has built a great relationship and they are very keen to keep her on in a paid role next year once she finishes at school.

The transition year is all about giving things a go and seeing what is out there. As part of the regular conversations and planning, Esther has said that being a teacher aide is something she is interested in as well. To get this happening, the high school, Tracy and Esther have approached the local primary school and Esther recently commenced work experience there as a teacher aide.

The high school has been extremely supportive and pro-active in helping Esther with her transition process and the ability for everyone involved to work towards the things that Esther is identifying have made this a really effective transition process.

Esther has also shown interest in doing some modelling, and a local modelling agency has been approached. Esther is yet to decide whether she wishes to take up the modelling sessions but this is an option for her if she decides it is a path she would like to follow

If Esther continues to throw herself into any opportunity that comes her way we are excited to see what will happen in her future.

Onwards and Upwards

Here we’re lucky enough to share the stories of some of the people we work alongside. Each of these individuals shape our role in

their lives, which is to support them to achieve the goals, vision and ambitions they have for their own life

So Many Interests

Libby moved to Invercargill from Christchurch in 2015 and has since

connected with Tony Kahukura for MSD funded Transition support.

Through the planning and relationship building that has taken place between Tony, Libby and her family it has become evident that Libby has wide and varied interests. These include, but are by no means limited to, skate boarding, surfing, tending to animals, baking and CHILDREN!!

To build on this enthusiasm and focus on children, work experience was organised at a local childcare centre. Libby got involved in preparing resources and morning tea, helping with playtime as well as assisting with “clean up” and

of course spending time with as many children as possible.

To engage her passion for animals Libby has connected with the local SPCA and she continues to enjoy helping the dogs keep fit and entertained by walking and playing with them.

As 2016 is Libby’s last year at school the plan for next year is to put some further focus on working with animals and she will combine this with the fact that her family is a farming family. Libby will complete a farm training course in 2017 as well as continuing her connection with the childcare centre and SPCA. These relationships will further develop as Libby moves out of the school environment but Libby is excited about the year ahead.

Fire Safety

- Keeping Ourselves Safe

One of the things that comes up from time to time with families we are

working with, is Fire Safety. After hearing this a few times from different families Carla Kupe, Service Coordinator, spoke to the Fire Service in Invercargill and organised a Fire Safety Education visit to the local Fire Station.

On the day 17 families arrived to come and check out the Fire Station and have some conversations with the experts about fire safety in and around their homes.

Upon arriving Carla let the Education Team know that one young man finds it difficult to interact in larger groups so he may hang back at different points. When she looked over later on Carla was excited to see that a Fire Officer had taken the time to speak one-on-one with the young man and make sure he gets just as much out of the session as others.

Making this type of information available to a smaller group of families meant that the time was able to be taken to ensure that it worked for everyone and the Fire Officers also had the opportunity to learn more about how to make their information accessible to diverse groups of children and young people. On top of this, three homes were checked in

relation to Fire Safety on the day of the event. Resulting from a check in one of these homes a landlord was contacted to complete repairs to exposed wires that the family had not noticed prior to the check.
