Alm8 and Organlsatlon The principal object of the Charity is to promote the relief ofelderly people in any Manner, which now or hereafter may be deemed by law to be charitable in and around Mansfield in particular, by the provision and operation of day care facilities for elderly people. Actlvltle• During the year one of our day centres that had for many years been operated on a Wednesday in Mansfield had to close. The Centre organiser retired, and despite our efforts, we were not able to find a suitable replacement. We thank Mrs Vmlkinson for all her dedication and professionalism over the past 25 years. INe now carry out all of our principal activities within the tsvo remaining Day Centres across Mansfield and Mansfield Woodhouse. The centre in Mansfield opens for 1 day per week, for friendship. activities and a hot meal. The activities include the provision of bingo, raffles, entertainment, occasional outings, and seasonal parties. The day centre at Mansfield Woodhouse opens for 2 days per week. One day covers the same activities as those in Mansfield, the other day is run as a craft workshop and provides a further social outlet and support for elderly local residents. Activities are organised and supervised with the help of volunteers. During the year the Charity had 19 volunteers who had given their time. The Trustees keep in mind the Charity Commission's guidance on PubliG Benefit, whenever they are planning activities for the year.
A e Concern Mansfield ort of th• Tru8 f r th Year Endèd 314t March 202 Summary of the maln achlevements durlng the perfod The work of the Charity SUPPOrted 65 individuals (Members) throughout the year within the 3 Day Centres that were open for some or all of the year. The Centres provide their elderly Members with activities, entertainment, a wholesome lunch, trips out, and most importantly, friendship and companionship- a particularly vital element for those of our Members who live alone. The Charity's Trustees remain aware of their fiscal responsibilities with regards to the organisation of the charity, maintaining tight control of costs, attracting voluntary charitsble income where possible and supporting the well- being of the members across all its centres. Two of the day centres were, during the year, organised and managed by part-time paid members of staff, all other management and operational roles across the charity are undertaken by Trustees and volunteers. The Trustees remain grateful for the expertise, caring and commitment that everyone brings to the running of the Centres. The Receipts and Payments Account shows a net deficit of £2,464 in the year, but this was an improvement on the £3,545 deficit for the previous year, Raising charitable funds continues to represent a challenge, although we did receive £4,500 from Charitable Trusts in the year. Cash and Bank holdings at the year-end stood at £11,090. The overall position of the Charity remains healthy and there are no major concerns about its financial position going fonvard, although the Trustees have prudently reviewed their Reserves Policy. Fundralslng During the year we received donations of £2,000 from the Sir John Eastwood Foundation and The Fifty Club. We also received £500 from The Jessie Spencer Trust. We are grateful to all of the charitable organisations for their vital financial support. We also received £290 from local and County Councillors. Other Donations during the year totalled £2,044. In addition, the day centres themselves raised £6,642 through their own fundraising efforts. The Charlty'8 Pollcy on Re8erve8 The Charity's policy on reserves has been reviewed by the Trustees. They have decided that the size of Reserves should be increased to 'Half the level of all costs incurred by the Charity in the previous financial yearf. Vthilst the Charity has a low level of fixed costs lit is noteworthy that we do not own, lease or rent propety and going forward the charity is only committed to employing one part-time member of stsffj, this revised policy is seen by the Trustees as prudent in the current financial climate. V¥hilst this new measure is notcurrently being met, we have plans in place to increase applications forcharitable funding, which if successful will ensure that Resep48s will increase in the future The Charity's Trustees declare that they have approved the content of this Report, and this is confirmed on their behalf by..
