CHARITY COMMISSION FOR ENGLAND AND WALES Trustees, Annual Report for the period From 01 Jan 2024 (Period start date) To 31 Dec 2024 (Period end date) Charity name:Jameston Community Association Charity registration number:1115767 Objectives and Activities SORP refererKe Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document Para 1.17 To associate the inhabitants, local authorities, voluntary and other organisations- in a common effort to advance education. provide facilities of interest for recreation and leisure time for the inhabitants. Following a fire at the village Primary school, Jameston Community Association have allowed the local authority to locate the school in the village hall on a temporary basis. This has curtailed our ability to provide a premises for events etc for the inhabitants of the village. Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or serVI￿S identified in the accounts. PaTa 1.17 arvj 1.19 However we have been supporting the community at other venues. Together with the Giraldus Centre. another local hall, we provided a Christmas lunch for all the local senior citizens of the two villages. In addition we funded the local luncheon club Christmas dinner and provided sweets for all the local Children for Christmas. Statement confirming whether the trustees have had regard to the guidan issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit Para 1.18 Additional infomiation {optional) You ma choose to include further statements where relevant about.. SORP refe￿nC Para 1.38 Policy on grant making

Para 1.38 Policy on social investment including program related investment Para 1.38 Contribution made by volunteers In October 2022 Manorbier VC Junior School had to be evacuated. due to a serious fire. Other Without a base the school faced closure, the trustees considered the situatlon and the consequences very carefully, and unanimously took the difficult decision to offer the Community Hall as a temporary home for the school. Had the Community Association not stepped in and 'saved' the school, the community would have lost one of its key resources. Clearly, this fits with the Association's educational purpose, although It has inevitably been at the cost of the other activities which the community hall housed. This has been less serious than it might have been, given that in the post- COVID period when the flre happened, very few activities were running or viable and attendance at those was extremely low. Recognising its wlder brief the Association actively looks to continue and develop activities which take it towards its stated purposes. They are focusing on finding ways to continue to deliver opportunities for local residents in the community, and identifying locations other than the Community Hall, where activities could take place. Local residents have generally been extremely supportive of the declslon to house the school, and parents have expressed gratitude that their children do not face a second trauma, after the fire... having individual and group friendships and bonds broken as children have to travel to a range of unfamiliar schools. The key stakeholders, alongside the Communi Association, are the Count

Council Education Department, and the Church in Wales, and these bodies work at their own pace. apparently applying a different definition of the word 'temporary' from that which is understood by the general population. So, getting answers and deadlines has been a slow and sometimes frustrating process. We have tried to keep residents infonned, but with little news coming to us there's little to pass on. We had hoped to have received an anticipated hand back date by now but this has not been forthcoming. In order to meet our wider objectives we have endeavored to provide events at alternative venues. This will be the norm for us for the time being. The feedback as a result has been very positive. The village is keen to see the school retained and have on the whole have shown great patience with the situation. Achievements and Performance SORP referen Allowing the local primary school to use the hall while their building is repaired following a fire, has ensured that Manorbier Primary School has a future in the Village. Although small, many of the local children attend the school. Had we not stepped forward, the suggestion was that the children would be split among other schools locally. In all likelihood, this would have seen the demise of our school which lies at the heart of the community. Summary of the main achievements of the charity. identifying the differen￿ the charity's work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. Para 1.20 The return of the hall has become protracted so we have tried to support our objectives in other ways. This year we have joined forces with another village hall to host a Christmas dinner for our senior citizens. The event was very well attended and was thoroughly enjoyed by all.

We also funded the local luncheon club Christmas dinner and provided sweets for all the children of the village. We will continue to seek ways to provide opportunities for inhabitants to socialise and to meet our objectives. In the meantime we look forward to the hall becoming available again.
