Summary ofthe main achievements ofthe during the year				charity	2021/22 was a successful year for Playgroup following the disruptions of the previous two years due to the Covid 19pandemic. We offer 38weeks ofsupervised Playgroup sessions and we started the year with 16
					children on the register and finished with 24. We looked after children
					ranging from 2.5to4years old. Bythe end ofthe year we were at full
					capacity (20 children) for our morning sessions on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays with 19children attending on a Friday morning.
					Increased availability in the Village Hall also meant we were able to
					extend our Wednesday sessions and offer more hours ofcare to parents.
					A parental survey at the end ofthe year showed that parents were very
					happy with the care received. The fact that our numbers were high
					resulted in a NET income off6454.
					The Chair and Treasurer reviewed the Reserves Policy for the playgroup
					and were able to put all ofthe reserve funds into the playgroup savings
					account (previously itwas kept over the current and savings account) and
					this profit allowed us to do this. As the sector continues to face problems
					with recruitment and remains under funded, having the whole reserves
					amount separate gives playgroup more financial security. The profit
					made over the year allowed this as previously the savings account did	not
					hold enough to cover the amount calculated should be held in reserve.
					This policy is reviewed annually and itwas decided that going forward
					this review would take place at the AGM.
					As we had made a net income ofR3958the previous financial year we
					were able to invest in new equipment for the children including items to
					improve our outside play area and some much needed new ITequipment for staff. We also had a successful year offundraising making f1339
					which we were able to put towards new equipment, make a donation to
					the Ukraine appeal and pay for some end ofyear trips. Our fundraising
					included a Christmas raffle, Bags2school collections and online shopping
					donation schemes.
