OBJECTS AND ACTIVITIES

interAKtive is a local Surrey-based charity whose main objective is to support children with autistic spectrum disorders and their families and carers. It does this by organising holiday play schemes and other activities for children, and by providing opportunities for parents, carers and professionals to learn more about autism and benefit from each other’s experience.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND FINANCIAL REVIEW

We offered a range of activities for all the family. Keeping in mind at all times best value for money for the charity, we significantly subsidised or fully funded most of these activities. We held summer evenings out and a Christmas event at children’s farms, all of which were very popular. We also funded tickets to a range of events, including low bang fireworks, disability-friendly visits to Santa, a Halloween pumpkin trail, a Christmas pantomime at Epsom Playhouse, and an autism-friendly cinema screening. We arranged a variety of sessions focused on physical activity, including climbing and horse riding, and for those more interested in music we held a Band Night. For some of these activities we were able to arrange exclusive use of the facilities by interAKtive members; this enables many families to access activities that otherwise they might choose to avoid with an autistic child or young person.

interAKtive has provided highly valued activities for large numbers of children and their families. One of our summer farm evenings was enjoyed by over 120 people, including both children with autism and their families and friends.

All of our activities were organised by Trustees working on a voluntary basis. This keeps the charity’s administrative costs very low.

We raised almost all of our income for the year from donations, which allowed us to continue to significantly subsidise the cost to our members of participating in activities. This was particularly appreciated by families hard hit by increases in the cost of living.

The total reserves of the charity at the year end were £72,105 (2024 - £57,620).

RESERVES POLICY

The charity aims to hold enough in reserves to fund at least one year of play schemes and other activities without relying on grant contributions and other fundraising, which are vulnerable to economic downturns and public sector funding cuts.
