## **The Cabin Crew ‘Out of School Club’** ANNUAL REPORT FROM TRUSTEES Registered Charity Number: 1119785 Financial Year: 1[st] January 2024 to 31[st] December 2024 ## **Trustees during 2024** Mrs Karen Myall - Chairperson Mrs Susan Ramsey - Secretary Mrs Amy Barker (club finance manager) **Committee Members** Mrs Lynne Newson (acting club manager) Mr Murray Brunning - Treasurer Mrs Suzanne Andrews Mrs Lauren Brunning Mrs Natasha Clifton Miss Lianne Fountain Mr John Carswell Mrs Jessica Cable-Davey ## **Report** We are pleased to present the Trustee’s Annual Report for the period 1[st] January 2024 to 31[st] December 2024. 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. All our clubs continue to flourish, and our intake of Reception children for the beginning of the academic year in September 2024 was high with 18 joining the club. In the Easter and Summer holidays we again worked with Suffolk County Council to deliver the Holiday Activity and Food (HAF) Programme. The aim of the programme is to provide fun filled days for kids, lots of physical activity, enrichment, and some delicious and nutritious food. Places are free of charge for those eligible for benefits-related free school meals. The programme was again very successful, with a lot of positive feedback from families attending, and the club benefitted greatly from the HAF funding provided by SCC, which was £8,640. We were also awarded a £13,500 grant from Activities Unlimited to support all our holiday clubs across the year. The funding was awarded as we have a high number of SEN children who regularly access our holiday clubs and enables us to enhance the staff ratio to support them and provide different workshops, experiences, activities and respite throughout the holidays. In October 2024 we applied for Local Authority funding to help us expand our breakfast and after school places and were awarded a Wraparound grant of £40,600. The funding included refurbishment of the toilets in the garden room, replacing all the interior lighting, new fencing, toys and equipment as well as money towards additional staffing costs for the increased places. Our staff numbers increased from 28 members in January 2024 to 34 at the end of December 2024. Across the year we had 11 new staff members joining and 6 leaving. Income from our breakfast, after school and holiday clubs was significantly higher than in 2023, which resulted in a combined increase of £33,417. Our overall expenditure in 2024 was also significantly higher than the previous year, by £22,499. In 2024 we invested in some new play equipment and craft resources. The cost of refreshments increased as we began to offer more hot food options at after school club. With the wraparound grant included, we ended with a surplus of £72,136, which is very encouraging. In November 2024 we held our AGM and welcomed Jessica Cable-Davey as a new parent representative. Auditor: I propose next years’ Auditor – Chris Regan Limited.
