25 years of Moor 25 years Allerton Elderly Care Moor Allerton Elderly Care was set up in 1995 under the umbrella of Churches Together in Moor Allerton and Shadwell. It received a small amount of funding from Leeds City Council, and had just one member of staff, Carole Gosden. The following year MAECare began its volunteer car transport scheme, and started the Alwoodley Park Lunch Club, and by 1997 it had an office in the vestry of St Stephen’s Church. Some activities in the early years included Winter Warmers, Extend exercise classes, Companions in Concert and the Stroke Club. Friendly Visiting started formally in 2000, and in 2001 MAECare moved to Northcall on Cranmer Bank. The premises at 57 Cranmer Bank have been occupied since 2003, with the expansion to 57a taking place in 2015. MAECare became independent of CTMAS in 2008. From the vestry to new premises at 57 and 57a we have grown and developed. In 1995 we had one staff member; we now have 13. We started with 40 volunteers and we now have 90. Our first grant was £22,000; our turnover last year was £305,000. The newsletter was sent out to 185 people; it is now sent to over 1000 people. The increase in resources has meant we can offer a wide range of groups, activities and services.

The future This calendar portrays some of the work that MAECare has done in the past I have been asked to write something about how things will develop for MAECare in the future In fact, it is very difficult to forecast exactly what will happen in the next few months. During the time since March 2020, the world has been in the middle of a pandemic caused by COVID 19. The UK went into lock-down in March, and regulations and guidelines were issued which affected us all. Many people had to isolate, and we had to discontinue most of MAECare’s activities. We were also asked to become the Community Care Hub for Leeds City Council’s COVID support base in Alwoodley. So, from that time MAECare has been organizing support and managing volunteers for people who couldn’t leave their homes to do things like shopping, getting medication or even walking their dogs. And we did that, as well as modifying our standard work with older people, using schemes such as telephone contact and support, emergency shopping, doorstop chats, providing fish and chip meals and even a distanced social event held in gazebos set up outside the office. We may well need to continue those sorts of activities for quite a while. But the virus has allowed some of us to learn new skills. People have learnt to speak a foreign language or take up a new hobby or even restart an old hobby. And many of us have developed skills in IT which have helped us to communicate with others in a whole host of different ways. And so, we’ve become interested in a wide variety of different things. Personally, I’ve become obsessed with digestive biscuits. I wouldn’t have given you tuppence for a digestive before the pandemic, but now I’ll even fight the dogs to get hold of one before they do! And I have learnt, from necessity, to re-roof my garden shed. Didn’t do a bad job, but I wouldn’t choose to do that one again! So, what does this have to do with MAECare? You will know that MAECare is funded to provide services for older people in the locality in emerging need and using different techniques. It’s not quite the same as eating digestives or learning to put a roof on, but I’m equating the situation to MAECare developing new activities to meet new needs and adapting other activities in the light of a changed situation. It will be hard, and there is much to think about, but we are committed, and we will do it. I know we have your support, and we will be there for you. Margaret Aveyard (Treasurer)
