learning disabilities in Nottinghamshire. In order to make a significant difference to the lives
of the young disabled atnongsl us. we need financial supporl and are grat￿1 to those who

Without continuing support. we would have to disappoint the most vulnerable in our County,
and it is our resolve that this must noi happen. We will continue to ask for finance. and we
will look to existing supporters for Continuity while. at the same time. lrying to open new
avenues.
The Covid-19 Pandemic has had a major impact on activities but in the summer 2020 we
were delighted to continue our financial support of APTCOO in Mansfield and Retford and
the summer schools at Yeoman Park Sch(x)l in Mansfield Wocdhouse and Ash Lea in
Cotgrave. The latter was a new group for Fundays to support.
Due to the pandemic the summer sch(M)l and adult week at Oak Field khool did not tske
place in the summer of 2020.
The Nottingham Theatre of Citizens has continued on line. During August 2020. the group
did manage some socially distanced meetings at the Atboretum, which were successful. The
group returned to College Street ID the Autumn. but fijrther restrictions led to a return to on
line activity. Tutors continue to monitor individual student needs. Inndon Academy of Music
and Dramatic Arts (LAMDA) courses have continued on line. Magenta Dance Group met
again when regulations allowed but had to close during restrictions. The Poety Group met
until the lock down in March.
Trustees have supported the Playhwse Platfonn for adults with learning disabilities. Again
this continued mainly on line.
The young people who we aim to help are a most vulnerable group. bome wt of isolation,
rejection and low self*steem. The pandemic has highlighted this even more as the young
people are in high risk groups. many having to shield. This vulnerability Can leave them open
to abuse of every kind. Ofteo their family circumstanr£s mean that life opportunities are
very limited their chances to develop fiiendships are minimal. Our funding makes it
possible for them to share enjoyable experiences and. thr(￿gh those shared experiences. to
make friends and to have a greater understanding of the wider worfd including increased

ontact with the general community. This Promotes inner stren8th and enhances self-esteem
which does help to empower these vulnerable young people so that they have the self-respect
to better stand up to abuse. The objert is to allow people with disabilitie5 to feel better about
thern5elves. and to support and sustain those better feelings, leading to happier lives.
In 2020. we financially supported the following events. some of which continue on a weekly
basis. See above for note5 on activities during the current Pandemic.
The trustees take due regard of the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit when
funding the events listed below. Many of the events we fund would not have been available
to the disabled children and young people had it not be￿ for the financial support offered by
the charity.
Theatre Arts Group
'The Nottingham Theatre of Citizens" _ estsblished for age group 1840 with about 30 young
adults participatin& ail with moderate to severe learnin8 difficulties. meets in central
Nottingham for 36 evening sessions each year. It is a very successful theatrical production
ompany, run by young ttjtors with appropriate skill& and is a ￿eat source of pleasure to all.
Dante/Keep Fit Group
Weekly sessions for ab￿t 15 people. age grDUP 1940. m¢ets in central Nottingham and is
open to all with learning difficulties.
Poetry Group
We funded a poety course at Nottingham University for young adults with learning
ditTiculties between January 2020 and March 2020. The course received very positive
feedback from attendees.
FunDays in Conjunttioo with APTCOO (A Place To Call Our OWD)
In 2020 we continued our successful relationship with APTCOO in Mansfield who, with our
financial supporL provided activities in the summer in Mansfield and in Retford. This was
well received by the children attending. By p￿lIng our resources they are able to incre
provision for our shared audience.
FunDays supporting Yeoman Park School and Ash ika School
Financial support from FunDays enabled the schools to operate a two week summer school.
The feedback was universally excellent Without FunDays this would not have been possible.
Playhouse Platform- Fundays h&s supported this daytime theatre group run by Nottingham
Playhouse for young adults with l&Ynin8 disabilities.

Events in 2021
We plan to continue financial support for range of activities. Clearly the current
pandemic has curtailed some activities and planning for the future in more unc£rtain. Fundays
wtll work with any of the providers who are intending to summer sch(x)Is in 2021.
Funding
Although a number of backers Continue to wpw)rt us on an annual basis this is becoming
more difficult as demands increase With this in mind we hope that all will understand the
reason for us maintsining cash in the baDK and we will be pleased to talk to anyone to
provide clarification. We hope that our supporters will understand the trus*es' policy that the
proper way to avoid disappointing the disabled y(￿jg is that we raise money in one year and
use it in the following year.
Our Team
The trustees are impressed v4ith the skilled, dedicated and kind personnel who run the events
funded by us on a day t(yJay b&8is Looking after the young with complex physical and
mental disabilities requires special people. and we are indeed fortunate that such individuals
work at the summer schools and other events. The chilthw the y(￿1g adults and their Carers
have good reason to be grateful to them.
Reserves policy and risk management
During the year the trustees have reviewed prows against the objectives and as part of that
process have catried out a review of the risks which fatt the charity All such risks are
considered low risk by the trustees. An annual review will continue in addition to a review
whenever a significant change to policy. people or pro¢￿uTeS takes place.
The trustees. target for reserves is that cash of at least an amlxmt equivalent to the subsequent
twelve months anticipated expenditure sh(Mlld be held The plan over the next year (year 21
of the charity's existence) is for expenditure of approximately £70,LKIO. Our reserves at the
end of Novemb￿ 2020 were £64.869 (2019 £64.292). The plan for year 2021 is to maintain
the ￿ndIng from private sources and io continue to fund orgatiisations who provide ongoing
activities.
