ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

CYLCH MEITHRIN TREHARRIS

Trustees Annual Report

The Cylch Meithrin provides an important part in the community. It provides good quality, affordable, childcare through the medium of Welsh. It is also a feeder for the Welsh Medium school and majority of the children who leave us progress to Welsh education. We offer both private and flying start places and are fully inclusive. We offer the 30 hour childcare as well as full day care or sessional.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

During 2023-24 financial year our income generating capacity has seen a positive increase this year, we have seen more grants from the MTCBC and increase in children using the day-care. We always strive to further increase our footfall and subsequent income so will continue to market the centre, we believe our planned projects for the year ahead will set us on the right path to achieve this. The Policy for holding reserves is to insure we have a fall back for the day to day running costs of the charity.
