In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities. the trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit, including the guidance 'public benefit: running a charity IPB21'. Achievement and Performance The following has been achieved during the year- Funding secured from the ICB and National Lottery Awards for All to pay for salaries has made a significant contribution to overheads underpinning a positive year end result. Awards for All funding continues into 2026 to pay for Project Worker salary. The Longley Fitness for All project was initiated, underpinned by funding from Sport England. This enabled L4G to provide fitness classes every day of the week for which participants paid a minimum donation of £1. This reduced the financial barrier to participation and encouraged development of social groups. More than 90 hours of adult classes were provided with up to 8 attendees per session. Three 10-week children's yoga classes which took place on Saturday mornings were also supported. These sessions were oversubscribed with more than 20 attendees per session. We have received very positive feedback from parents especiallv those with children with SEND needs who are seeing positive impacts from participating in the mindfulness Yoga can teach. Sport England funding will be defrayed by August 2025 and continuation funding is being sought for 202512026 financial year. The Food Pantry continues to provide a much-needed service which serves 363 people via the 95 members accessing affordable food, furthering our partnership with Fare Share and helping to reduce food waste and food poverty. In line with cost of living pressures we have maintained our membership fee of £4 and weekly shopping donations at £3, this helps us to cover the cost of Fare Share and still represent5 great value for members. We are noticing a shift in household composition towards large families which is a trend we need to monitor to ensure costs can fund larger weekly food parcels. Food saved to landfill 9.4 tonnes of food from 239 different food sites. the equiv. of roughly 23,000 meals worth of food. Social Café provision in partnership with Food Works was extended to three days a week from June until December 2024. This partnership enabled us to provide greater choice of meals for attendees at a lower cost Iminimum donation £11. During the pilot we served 240 meals a month with the average donation per meal being £3. Unfortunately. these metrics were insufficient for Food Works to continue to run the Café with us so a volunteer led solution based around groups is being considered for the future. We have continued to provide Healthy Holidays activities throughout 2024125 at the Centre engaging with 158 local young people. Supported by LAC funding Longley 4G hosted weekend community events for Halloween and Christmas which attracted over 150 children and their families into the centre. These event5 enabled us to reach working families who aren't able to engage with the other centre activities during the week and who don't qualify for HAF activities. We plan to run an active programme of community events going forward. We were successful in securing the Low Carbon and Culture grant for capital improvements which reduce carbon footprint. We replaced the old obsolete centre lighting and emergency lights with modern LED equivalents which also has had the positive effect in reducing electricity costs. We were successful in securing a long-term tenant for 43 Southey Avenue with a 5-year full repairing lease providing much needed trading income and a cost reduction in utilities and business rates. The tenant has also completed all dilapidation repairs improving the lettable value of the premises going forward.

We want to further increase the use of community facilities creating a feeling that residents are involved and play a part in the life of their neighbourhood. We continue to engage and involve Longley residents in the running of L4G and the activitie5 provided- Currently they act as volunteers. support activities, and meet regularly.

Staff and Volunteers Barbara Russell, recruited in January 2024. continues in post as a part-time business development manager but significant increase in project activity has necessitated Barbara increasing her hours to an additional day per week. Barbara continues to work hard to attract new customers and partners and is focussed on increasing Centre activation by securing new commercial opportunities. delivering on additional low-cost activities and providing training opportunities to attract local people. We will of course continue supporting people who need access to food and holiday activities and will maintain our status as a welcoming space. Janine Morrall, a key asset to L4G, remains in post as part-time Project Co-ordinator leading on HAF activity and the Fitness for All projects. Consultation with centre users and the wider community has identified the need for parenting support, after school provision and youth activities. The priority for 2025 is securing multi-year funding to finance an additional Community Development Worker to move fonNard these projects. We still have a core group of competent and enthusiastic volunteers to help with our food pantry and they give willingly their own time to make the Centre a "go to" place in the locality. We hope that we can attract a wider pool of volunteers with our planned future projects.
