Wesley Mission strategy 2016-2021
In 15/16, the Wesley Community Services Board
approved Wesley Mission’s five-year strategic
plan for the period July 2016 to June 2021. The
plan continues our optimistic outlook for
increasing our impact in Word and deed, building
on our long commitment to do all the good we
can to help those most in need.
Our strategic plan is aligned to our desire to
serve the marginalised and vulnerable, and to
strengthen the communities in which we live and
operate. It affirms our mission, vision and values,
and the guiding principles that have inspired us
for generations.
Financial year 19/20
Although the COVID-19 crisis brought significant
challenges over the last year, we were able to
keep our essential services open during lockdown
with a focus on providing additional support to our
clients in all forms of residential accommodation.
While the NSW Public Health Order restricted
non-essential movement and gatherings, we
continued to provide services, wherever safe to
do so. Some services, such as venues and
learning opportunities for seniors, were
appropriately closed.
