Chairman's Introduction
Welcome to the Lyppard G￿rtIe Community Centre (Lyppard Hub) 202312024 Annual Rèport.
It has been a better year. due to pandemic becoming less of an iSSLtre for us. Our customers are beginning to come back. and
some new buslne$5 has materialised.
The last financial period was still challenging for Lyppard Grange Communlty Centre due to the unexpected withdrawal of the
Lyppard Nursery from the premlses. We have been able to retsin most of our staff, but staffing for our youth club has been
problem for several months despite our regular advertisements.
Bulldlres
The buildin& a5 always. are in good decorative order. and we continue to malntaln It annually In Ilne with our lease conditions.
Our roof leak in Hall 2 continues to be a problèm. the Clty Council have now tried fixing this problem three times but seem
unable to cure it. They intend to try with a different contrartor. we have our fingers crossed. This pwènts tss from renting Hall 2
properly because some tenants know the hirtory.
We have suggested that the roof light wlhdows be removed as that is the main obstatle in ovèr¢oming the problemL
Objecli¥e5 and acti¥ttles
Publ1¢ benefit

We remain focused In our mission to continue to be the focal point of the community, developin& implementing, and enabling
initiatives which will enrich the lfves of the local people.
H5re Charges

approprlate as we move forward to re-bulld our business.

Ananclal re¥lew
Prirhtlpal fundlng sources
Funding is received during the year from Worcester City Council1£20,4881 and Wamdon Parlsh Council1£35.5001.
othér F￿d1ftE
Local Councillors supported various community initiatives including Youth aub and Dementia support sessions with grnnts during
the period totalling= £2050. In addition to this we also received support from one of our ￿gUlar usei groups,. Lyppard Bridge Club
who donated £250.00 to support community activtties.
We have been seeing significant cost increases over the last two ye3r5. The increase in fuel c05t. the rise in National Living wage
(over two years) and overall costs will see us trading at a loss for several years. Fortunately. we have Significant balan￿5.
Reserves poliry
The Trustees have in place a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets {the 'f￿e
reser¥e5'1 held by the CTharity should be a minimum of one half of its estimated annual e¥penditiJre which for the current year
would be E90.082.IXI. At this level, the management committee feel that they would be able to C[￿tinue the current activities of
the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding.
The Trustees are pleased to report that at present the free reserves whith amount to £154.802.00 show a small decrease over
the Pr￿10￿5 figure but is more than the Safety figure set. Trustees will continue to pursue opportunities to maintain the reserve5
above the required level.
D•yto Day Manaiement
The Trustees delegate day to day management to the Manager of the Hub and Deputy Manager in the Managerfs
absence.
Futwe plans
The Trustees believe that the Centre continues to fulfil. If not exceed, the objectives set by the Community Development
Manager of Worcester City Council and as described in the Service Level Agreement a8reed between the Crty Council and
Trustees of Lyppard Grange Community Centre Ltmlted on annual basis.
The Annual Usèr Forum did not take place in 202312024.
The mission of the Trustees is to provlde quality recreational and community fa¢llltles for local inhabitants of all ages and the
Trustees believe that optimum community benefit Is achieved by working in partnership with other bodies such as the Parish and
ty councils. Close liaison wlth these authorities is, the￿fOre. encouraged and members of both Councils are also Trustees.
The facilities aye limtted by the size nature and location of the present building and without major extension it is possible only to
provide additional pursuits and services by greater utilisation of the present hall and activity r￿ms.
We are grateful to Wamdon Parish Council and Worcester City Council as they conthnue their support us. Prudent budgetin8
since 2009 will enable us to come through these troubled years, as long we focus on a complete recovery over the next years.
Struciure. Kovernance and management
