Connecting familles has been an Important aspect of the year with many of our famllles telling us that they see
the centre as an Invaluable1Sfeline which has enabled them to make frtends and has led to an extended support
network beyond the ￿ntre. Parent's say we are a safe, home like envlronment that helps to develop their
children's Confiden￿ through play. We also f¢xus on family wellbeing in our weekly cuppa, craft and chat
sessions. We have found a good balance btheen oirtreach and ts'me In the centre. We spend Mondays in the
community at the flower park and in the Baptist Chapel in the ￿ntre of Ammanford. We also visit Annwyl Fan
Care home on a Wednesday for our intergeneratlorkil projert. The centre Spa￿ is used the rest of the time drop-
In and pre booked sesslons. Famllles have enjoyed accesslng courses through the centre, one of which was a
collab)ration with Flying Start offering a four-week Parenting Puzzle course aimed at dads. We make sure that
families have evetyching they need to connect and spend quallty time together durlng Christmas and school

Flnanclal revlew
Reserves Pollcv
Befmis Famity Centre has reviewed the charitls needs for re￿rYeS In Ilne with the guldance issued by the Charity
Commisslon. The greatest area of rlsk to the effettlveness of the charlty is loss of grant income. The trustees feel
that, given their ￿SponSIbl11t1eS to both the pald workers and the famllies who benefit from the services,
reserve of 4 - 6 months running costs (currently equivalent to £17,037 - £25,556) should be held (thls belng
calculated in relation to total payments less capitsl c05ts). Current free reserves a￿ £24,337. The trustees
monitor reserves on a ￿gUlar basis.
This level of reserves has been determined tsking Into account the fact the income is received from a wide range
of sources, the extent of protective measures (such as Insuran￿), commitments it has to staff, and other
obligations under agreements wlth thlrd parties.
Risk management has been revlewed in terms of child protection policies, rlsk assessments of events and trips,
the understanding of DBS checks and health arml safety Issues. The trustees feel that they have taken all
reasonable steps to protect beneflclaries, stsff, volunteers and the organisatlon Itself. This pollcy will be revlewed
annually.
FUTURE PLANS
Bet￿S Famlly Centre will contlnue to deliver their current alm5 and objectives.
Much of the charities work is ongoing and involves staff working within the local comrnunity to provide support
and training for families.

of rlsks. All actlvltles and events are rlsk assessed prFor to commen￿ment. Approprlate DBS checks are done of
