~| |---|---|---|---| |Summary ofthe main
achievements
ofthe charity
during the year|||0 For obvious reasons relating to the COVID-19 pandemic
itwas a
particularly
hard year financially.
ARer the first national
lockdown
the
centre was only providing
childcare for children
with parents
in front line
occupations
and this greatly reduced the income for the year though the| ||||costs of running
the centre were unchanged.
Further we were not able to| ||||do the usual spring/summer
fundraising
activities.| ||||D Introduction
of new accounting
and nursery
management
software to| ||||the setting to improve
invoicing
and book-keeping
activities has proved to| ||||be very beneficial for our processes and drastically
cut down
billing and| ||||reconciliation
issues. Additional
operational
improvements
and changes| ||||to how we purchase
supplies
has also streamlined
our processes.| ||||Di We have continued
to provide
quality childcare
in a local rural village,| ||||where possible and within the restrictions
ofthe COVID pandemic. The| ||||first lockdown
on 23 March 2020 meant that after this date the centre| ||||closed to the majority ofchildren
however
it continued
to operate and| ||||provide care for children
with parents
in front line occupations.| ||||D Members
and volunteers
normally
have the chance to carry out some| ||||fund-raising
activities throughout
the year, however due to COVID-19 afi| ||||ofour usual events (Ryan Gooding, Christmas fete, open day, etc)were| ||||cancelled,
with the effect of having
no fund raising income within the| ||||year.| ||||D Through cooperation
with the Council and the school we have now| ||||Installed a new video intercom to control access more easily without| ||||taking staff out ofthe setting to let people into the grounds.| |Briefstatement ofthe
