EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S REVIEW

Overview

Shan You contributes to the behavioural and mental health of the community by strengthening their sense of well-being and encouraging their recovery through a support system that promotes mindfulness, respect and dignity. For 20 years, Shan You has lived up its name to serve with compassionate and loving-kindness. All service programmes are free of charge or at affordable fees since from start. The service environment is user friendly and accessible to anyone who needs professional counselling and social support services. Beneficiaries

There were 4,357 direct service users last year. This is an increase of 20% as compared to previous year. Shan You has established a professional service standards for counselling practices which resulted in better client care outcome and quality of services. The social services saw an increase in homes visitation as it extended Shan You services to the wider community.

Funding

Shan You was selected to be one of the participating charities in the Share and Care Movement, a programme under the Singapore government in celebration of the Republic's 50th anniversary in 2015. All donations received from December 2013 to March 2016 are eligible for dollar-to-dollar matching grant. For the period December 2013 to December 2014, we have submitted an amount of over $900,000 in applications and any approved expenditure claim disbursements will be received in tranches spread over four years. The Share and Care grant will support Shan You Counselling Centre in capability building, capacity building, new/enhanced programmes and critical existing needs.

Cost Breakdown

Shan You total operating expenditure for the last three years average of $1.3 million and funding is 30% ComChest Funding and 70% donations from corporate companies, institutions and individuals.

Counselling (Funded Programme)

There is an upward trend in the number of cases reported with Behavioural and Mental Health concerns. This could be due to the concerted effort put in over the last two years in promoting the benefits of practising mindfulness for self-care and mental wellness. More than 30% of referrals came from self and this could indicate that people are more aware of the benefit of counselling and willing to come forward to seek help from Shan You. In the client feedback form, 70% indicated that after receiving counselling at least two of their objectives had been met. In the new FY 2015/16, we have enhanced our evaluation of client’s outcome to better rate the efficacy of our counselling service.

Education

Highlight of the year was the 2-day Asia Pacific Symposium on Motivational Interviewing-Singapore (APSMI-SG) where we gathered the best Motivational Interviewing (MI) practitioners, trainers and researchers to share on the latest research, advance knowledge and skills training. Coming up in July 2015, we will be offering MI in Groups training and MI supervision as an addition to the yearly training on MI Basic, Intermediate and MI Advanced course. The Mindfulness in Singapore project went on track to obtain Teacher certification for our psychologist and counsellors. They are now fully certified by the Oxford Mindfulness Centre in UK to teach the Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) 8-week programme. The pilot MBCT took place in March 2014 and we went on to deliver two MBCT programmes, one of which was jointly conducted with Khoo Teck Puat Hospital. In the new FY 2015/16, we will be launching mindfulness programmes for teenagers and parents.

Wellness Community & Social Service

The Wellness Community undergone a face lift in July last year with the help of donations raised by nEbO, the junior membership arm of NTUC. With the improved facilities, we expanded our recycling programme and conducted activities for the children and youth. In the new FY 2015/16, we have introduced new programmes such as acupressure service to help people suffering from pain. There is a counsellor on hand once a week to provide pre post stress assessment and counselling for these people. Every month we conduct training class for caregivers so that they can assist their family members at home. We also introduced laughter wellness class and recruited new members to join.

Challenges

It is a challenge that Shan You has to raise $900,000 annually for its non-funded programmes and to cope with the increasing staff costs each year. We will continue to make concerted effort for Shan You to obtain funding support and donations. We are extremely grateful that Shan You has been selected to be one of the beneficiaries for the President’s Challenge 2015.

Appreciation

I would like to thank members of the Management Committee for extending your support to our staff team and the Centre. To the clients, service users, partners and agencies that we have served through Shan You counselling and casework, education and training, wellness community and social services, I thank you for your continued confidence in our services. To the staff team, I thank you for your contribution towards the Shan You mission and appreciate your passion to care for the people we serve.

The widely researched and scientifically respected 8-week programme enables individuals to become more familiar with their body, feelings, mind and experiences through learning to pay attention intentionally, in the present moment and non-judgementally. The programme since being rolled out has received positive and encouraging feedback from the participants. Examples: “The programme is important as it has given me much needed clarity to sort out the often hectic, confused mind. Also with the practices, gain much confidence in my ability to better cope with future stresses.” “This MBCT course has given me new tools (very concrete & practical ones suited to our modern, fast-paced society) … to dot and infuse my life with awareness.” “It ensured that I committed 8 weeks of my time to learn and practise mindfulness on a regular basis.” “It is important because it has helped me to reconnect spiritually with my Christian faith.” “It has helped me to see the interconnectedness of my thoughts, feelings, body sensations.” “(It has) improved (my) ability to be more aware of my trigger points & respond more in the present”

To support these MBCT participants in their ongoing mindfulness practice, we also began hosting the Mid-Month Mindful Space @ Shan You and Wellness Mindful Space for Elderly. The Mindful Space gathering provides a secular space for practice and sharing of information with regards to mindfulness. With the increasing interest in mindfulness in Singapore and positive feedback from people who have experienced mindfulness and are using it in their daily lives, we certainly hope to continue with the meaningful work to make mindfulness more secular and available for all who wish to use it to gain a greater sense of well-being in the long term.

SOCIAL SERVICES & WELLNESS COMMUNITY

Shan You expanded its social services and started the Wellness Community project in October 2010. The goal of the Wellness Community is to promote the holistic well-being of the community and improve the quality of life through strengthening five different aspects of wellness for individuals and families. Our activities promote intergenerational bonding for the family, seniors, children and youth. We also encourage community spirit and inter-racial harmony. Last year, we received donations from nEbO to expand the facilities at Wellness Community to include a library drop-in, recycling and storage room for food rations. The place is well utilised with a dining cum community hall, counselling room and multi-purpose classroom. We run daily programmes for the seniors and provide social aids to the needy such as free meals and food rations distribution. Other social support services include befriending, visit to old peoples’ homes and hair cutting. We also support environmental wellness by rendering help on home maintenance, recycling and beach cleaning. Wellness Community offers volunteering opportunities and we engage individuals and groups, schools and corporate companies, to bring beneficial programmes to the community.

Eldercare Programme

Eldercare programme looks after the physical, social, intellectual, psychological and spiritual wellness of the senior folks living in the vicinity areas. In FY 2014/15, the number of participation totals 15,980. The 1.7% decrease from previous year is probably due to the renovation work where we stopped several activities and closed the Wellness Community for two weeks. Activities conducted in FY 2014/15 are classified under:

Physical Wellness Chan Dou Gong, Taiji, Tuina, Sitting Yoga, Health wellness with TCM @ Kwong Wai Shiu Hospital. Social Wellness Mahjong, Karaoke, Joget, Group games, Bonding games with volunteers, Movie day, Free haircut and Gardening. Intellectual Wellness Musical therapy, Brain workout, Documentary and Educational show, Singing class, Handicraft, Mindful Creative Hands, Wellness and health talk and monthly special. Psychological & Spiritual Wellness Live-the-Moment Mindfulness (8-week programme), Wellness Mindful Space for Elderly and Art therapy (4-6 week programme).

Free Meals

Free Meals is an assistance scheme to provide free breakfast, lunch and dinner for the needy. Priority is given to the seniors; those unable to work due to health reason or unfavourable family circumstances and/or have little means of subsistence. We serve a meal with rice, meat (either chicken or fish) and vegetables. On Saturdays, we serve vegetarian lunch. The Free Meals is also a programme that encourages people to eat with others and take part in wellness activities. In FY 2014/15, we served 28,927 meals to 1,831 diners.

Figure 6: Free Meals

Food Rations Distribution Service

Food Rations Distribution Service is an assistance scheme to provide basic provisions to help the needy and low income families. Priority is given to people living in 1-2 room rental flats; who are unable to work due to old age, illness or unfavourable family circumstances; with young children and/or have little means of subsistence. Each pack of ration contains provisions, such as rice, bee hoon, instant noodles, cooking oil, canned food, sugar, milk, beverages, bread, festive goodies and sometimes special items such as milk powder and adult diapers. The food packs are delivered to the homes of the beneficiaries and by self-collection. Every month we mobilise about 150 volunteers to do sorting, packaging and delivery. In FY 2014/15, we delivered an average of 260 food packs per month. This is 8% decrease from previous year. The decline could be due to the increased number of food rations services set up in recent years.

Figure 7: Food Rations Distribution

Befriending

Befriending service is provided by trained volunteers and they care for the well-being of people who are vulnerable and/or isolated. They serve the elderly sick, patients with chronic health condition, terminally ill patients, those physically and/or intellectually challenged who have little family and/or social support. The Befriending Service expanded in March 2011 to include monthly visitations to the Society of the Aged Sick. The volunteers who are trained for this programme are called the Noble Ambassadors.

Haircutting

Haircutting service takes place once a month at the Society of the Aged Sick and Wellness Community. The professional hair dressers and trained volunteers come to cut hair for the seniors. They promote personal hygiene and encourage the seniors to enhance their self-image.

Visit to Old Peoples’ Homes

Last year Shan You Volunteer Event Committee organised visitations to three old peoples’ homes where they conducted group activities and special interest classes for the beneficiaries. The homes visited are United Medicare Centre, Silra Home and Blue Cross Thong Kheng Home.

Home Maintenance

Home maintenance service is rendered by volunteers to help perform house cleaning, painting, electrical work, repair of appliances and installation work for free. In FY 2014/15, we completed a total of four jobs for beneficiaries living in the Eunos and other areas.

Beach Cleaning

Beach cleaning is an opportunity for volunteers and service users to take care of our Singapore beaches and spend a day outdoor to be with nature. In FY 2014/15, we joined the Khoon Chee Vihara to complete five rounds of beach cleaning at the Pasir Ris beach.

Kindness Space

Shan You Kindness Space was set up to promote environmental values by providing a channel for people to de-clutter their space and send unwanted items for recycling. We receive donations of pre-loved items regularly and our volunteers help to do the sorting, checking and repair work before releasing for charity sale. In FY 2014/15, we organised a total of six charity bazaars at the Wellness Community.

Last year, we participated in five road shows to distribute Shan You brochure and sell handicrafts made by seniors from the Wellness Community. We set up booths on the Racial Harmony Day, World Mental Health Day, MDIS International Day and at other events. We also partnered with schools and corporates to organise activities and outings for the children, families and seniors beneficiaries of Wellness Community.

The special guest was Mr Perng Peck Seng, Vice President of Singapore Hokkien Huay Kuan. The “Tunes of Min Nan” concert featured the heritage art of nanyin music that has been passed down from the ancient court days of China Southern Fujian. We raised over $80,000 for the event.
