OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The object of the charity is about prevention and early intervention.
The constitution states the two objects as “I. The preservation and protection of health and the relief of distress within family relationships by the provision of a resource and advice centre and by the education of the public in good parenting skills. Il. The provision of facilities for recreation and other leisure time activities for families with young children in the interests of social welfare with a view to improving conditions of life” The charity works in partnership with parents and carers. It empowers them in order to better cope with family life and therefore gives their children a better start in life.
The Aims of the Family Centre is to ensure children:-
-
e Have a flying start in life e Have a range of education and learning opportunities e Enjoy the best possible health, free from abuse e Have access to play, leisure and cultural activities e Are listened to and respected and have their identity recognised e Haveasafe home and community e Are not disadvantaged by poverty
-
The objectives for the next year are to continue to:e provide a safe, warm and welcoming environment e provide access to various play equipment and activities e Offer training and support to families e provide opportunities to go on trips and outings e provide open-door policy where everyone is welcomed e continue outreach work to identify isolated families
The changes we have noticed are that children are better prepared for school life. Also some parents have gone back to employment, gained certificates with our training, learned new skills and children have developed better social skills. Parents and children interact much more freely and enjoy their experiences together.
- At the Family Centre Staff provide a safe quality service. Staff provide an opportunity to access information and other services that they may require in order to meet their individual needs. We offer support to parents while caring for their children and try to relieve stress and anxiety within the family. Through questionnaires and evaluation forms parents have told us that through attending the Family Centre their families have gained:e improved social and support networks e improved skills on positive parenting e improved relationships e improved resilience e increased confidence and self-esteem e increased access to community resources
Public Benefit
The public benefit through having a service that provides families with children aged 0-4 years (0-11 school holidays) with free access to a wide variety of play activities, free accredited training/courses on parenting skills, free trips and outings, and an open door policy promoting equal opportunities for all families. The centre also works closely with other like-minded organisations and therefore are able to sign-post families in need to other professionals. By providing this service we preserve and protect health and relieve stress within family relationships.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
This year has seen the family centre celebrate our 21* year of supporting families within our local community, and we have supported almost 200 families from our new home within Y Cwtsh community hub in Tumble. The centre has continued to run its core sessions and groups, offering families free weekly toddler groups, language and play sessions, baby groups, baby massage and sensory play sessions. Alongside the core services, we have also offered school holiday play sessions for families and their children aged 0-11 years as well as free trips and outings to folly farm, Barry Island, Pembrey country park and our local woodland parks. The family centre has forged strong relationships within the local community and has worked with other local organisations to provide sessions for families within the local community.
In January 2024, following community consultation, the family centre opened a new service for young people within the local community. The family centre has developed a free weekly junior club for young people aged 8-11 years, offering them a safe environment to meet friends, play, take part in organised activities and outings. Since opening, the club has reached capacity and has 20 young people registered. The family centre has worked hard to fundraise and build on unrestricted reserves; we have organised community fun days, community quiz nights and sponsored events throughout the past year. We have also been working in partnership with Y Cwtsh to develop more services for community members such as a warm hub, budgeting and benefits advice, family lunch clubs and free community activities during school holiday periods.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves Policy
|| Theby thetrusteesCharityhaveCommission.reviewed theThecharity'sgreatestneedsarea forof reservesrisk to thein effectivenessline with the guidanceof the charityissuedis loss of grant income. The trustees feel that given their responsibilities to both the paid workers and the families who benefit from the services a reserve of 3 - 6 months running costs (currently equivalent to £11,506 - £23,012) should be held. This will allow the scheme to function for this period whilst additional funding is raised. The current level of reserves (i.e. £7,960) is below this level but has increased since the previous year. Steps are being taken to increase unrestricted donations and to increase fee income where possible in order to build up the reserves to the required level.
This level of reserves has been determined taking into account the fact that income is obtained from a range of sources, the extent of protective measures (such as insurance), commitments it has to staff, and other obligations under agreements with third parties.
This policy will be reviewed annually.
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES
The trustees are responsible for preparing the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
