Annual report re DTCP June 2015 Introduction This has been a busy year for DTCP. The rate of referrals and exploratory interviews have increased and there have been a number of changes in personnel. It has been a particularly buoyant year for fundraising. Trustees Aleathea Lillitos stood down as trustee earlier this year and we were joined by Paul Vittle and Judith Anstice. Clinical management team It was necessary for Jacky Boucherat to take a sabbatical from being a mentor in autumn 2014 due to a change in work pressures at Weymouth College. Sue Howse, a former trustee with DTCP, took over as mentor but Jacky has remained on the management team. Sue Howse has recently agreed to stay on as mentor and to review the situation in December 2015. The Clinical Director intends to step down from the role within the next two and hopes to work with the Trustees to enable one or more people to take over. As part of this move to devolve some of the director’s duties, Jacky Boucherat has been asked to take on some of the tasks on the basis of four hours a week. Her role will be as clinical coordinator. The plan is that she will oversee the clients’ progress from referral to allocation and to be available to practitioners when concerns about a client need to be communicated to or acted on by DTCP. The Clinical Director’s role will continue to include the of trust practitioner co-ordinator i.e. monitoring the process of practitioners from application to the end of their involvement with DTCP. She will continue to deal with the management and welfare issues of practitioners. The Administrator After 8 years with DTCP, Davina Taylor left to take up a full time post with Dorset County Council this February. She has played such a central role in the trust helping handle many of the day to day issues that it has taken a while for DTCP to settle into its new way of being.
