## Report 

At The Cabin Crew we aim to provide a safe, secure and relaxed environment, offering a range of activities to reflect the interests of the children in our care. 

In common with many other charities, the club was affected dramatically by the Covid-19 pandemic. We were forced to close at the end of March 2020, due to the lockdown and school closures, and we didn’t reopen until the start of the new academic year in September 2020. We had hoped to re-open for June and July, when the schools welcomed some children back, but the potential numbers of children attending were not high enough to make it financially viable for us. Most of our holiday clubs were unable to run during 2020. We were only open for February and October half terms, with reduced numbers of children, as we could only make places available for children attending Sidegate Primary School. 

Inevitably, income for the year was affected by the closure. In fact income from our breakfast, after school and holiday clubs was nearly 50% lower than the previous year at £82,127 compared to £156,954 in 2019. Through utilising the government’s Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (Furlough) we were able to access vital funds, to the value of £35,761, to keep the business running. We also applied for several grants, and received in total £18,849, which included £6,000 from Activities Unlimited, £10,000 from Ipswich Borough Council and £2,000 from Suffolk Community Foundation. 

Expenditure for the year was considerably lower than the previous year, £137,835 compared to £160,777 for 2019. Because of the closure we spent less on refreshments for the children, and less on premises costs, repairs and maintenance. We made as many economies as possible to counter the drop in income, however there was considerable additional expense incurred for cleaning and sanitising materials, PPE, and separate resources for ‘bubbles’ of children. Despite a very difficult year, we made a net profit of £1,059, compared to a profit of £4,895 for 2019.
