OED08B90-F1DO-83B2-805E-7D2D486CCD60 WOODLANDS COMMUNITY CENTRE LIMITED CHAIR REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2026 As we look back on the past year, it is with great pride that I present the Chairs Report for 2026. Now in its 54th year, Woodlands Community Centre continues to be a trusted and welcoming anchor for the communities of Woodlands, Netherley. and the surrounding neighbourhoods. Each year brings new challenges and new opportunities, yet the Centre remains a place where people of all ages find connection, comfort, and the chance to grow in confidence and wellbeing. The wider environment in which we operate has continued to shift. Rising living costs, increased pressure on families, and growing demand for safe, inclusive spaces have shaped much of our work. Despite these pressures, the Centre has remained steady and responsive, adapting our programmes to ensure that residents continue to receive the support they need. Our warm hub provision, free refreshments, weekly community meals, children & youth programmes and expanded wellbeing activities have become essential lifelines for many local families and older residents. This year also marked a significant milestone in our long-term sustainability. Alongside continued support from valued funders such as Liverpool City Council -youth & Community- this achievement has provided a level of stability rarely afforded to small grassroots organisations and gives our funding strategy a strong and confident foundation. Combined with the ongoing support of The Henry Smith Charity, Garfield Western, whose flexibility enabled us to maintain essential leadership at a crucial moment, we are now able to plan with greater assurance and clarity. Our programmes have continued to evolve in response to rising need. We strengthened partnerships to deliver early intervention 2nd wellbeing support for both adults and young people, expanded our youth offer through creative and physical activities, and deepened collaboration with local organisations to widen access and reduce duplication. These developments have helped us reach more residents, offer more targeted support, and ensure that our services remain relevant and inclusive. Volunteer engagement remains one of our greatest strengths. Many of our volunteers particularly older residents have continued to give their time generously, helping us deliver activities, meals, events, and practical support. Their contribution is woven into the fabric of the Centre and amplifies the reach and impact of everything we do. The Trustees extend heartfelt thanks to our staff, volunteers, partners, and funders-including Liverpool City Council Youth & Community, HAF, Fords Liverpool, Feeding Liverpool, MPAC, LCVS, John Moores Foundation, Merseyside Police, NRF, Garfield Weslern and The Henry Smith Charity. Their support ensures we continue to deliver essential, inclusive services for our community. Woodlands Community Centre enters 2026 with strengthened partnerships, a stable building, and a deeply valued programme of activities. The Trustees remain committed to securing sustainable funding, expanding staffing capacity, and ensuring that our Centre continues to be a safe, welcoming, and transformative space for all.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Woodlands Community Centre exists to promote the wellbeing of residents in the Woodlands Estate and surrounding neighbourhoods without distinction of gender, background, belief, or circumstance. We do this by working collaboratively with local authorities, voluntary organisations, and residents to advance education and provide inclusive facililies for recrealion, social welfare, and leisure. Our aim is simple.. to improve lives and strengthen community bonds. In line with Charity Commission guidance on Public Benefit, the Trustees have ensured that all activities undertaken this year continue to meet these requirements and serve the wider public interest. Throughout 2025-26, we remained committed to our core aims by strengthening community engagement, widening access to inclusive activities, and responding to rising need. We continued to secure funding aligned with our charitable objectives, generated income through raffles, low-cost activity fees, room hires, and community use, and expanded opportunities for learning, wellbeing, and social connection. Our revised funding strategy, supported by the new five-year unrestricted grant from Liverpool City Council Youth & Community, has provided a strong foundation for long-temi sustainability and operational resilience. ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE As a small grassroots charity, we pride ourselves on being responsive, inclusive, and deeply embedded in the lives of our local residents. This year, we continued to offer free or low-cost universal services tailored to the needs of children, young people, families. and older adults. Our programmes included after-school clubs, youth wellbeing sessions. holiday activities, daytime groups for older residents, digital access support, and targeted interventions for those facing disadvantage or risk. We expanded our wellbeing offer significantly, launching new adult and youth programmes in partnership with local organisations. These sessions provided early intervention, emotional support, and safe spaces for young people navigating increasingly complex challenges. Adults benefited from meditation, relaxation, creative wellbeing, and social connection activities that reduced isolation and improved mental health. Our warm hub provision remained essential. Free tea, coffee, biscuits, and weekly community meals ensured that no resident was left without comfort or nourishment. Families facing rising utility costs and food insecurity relied on the Centre as a safe, welcoming space.

Staff provided practical help to residents facing challenges. "When my washing machine broke, I thought I'd have to carry all my laundry on the bus. Instead, the staff offered me use of the Centre's facilities and even arranged for someone to come out and fix it."

Partnerships and Outreach Partnership working remained central to our success. We collaborated with Speke Training & Education Centre, New Horizons CIC, Valley Community Food Hub, Lee Valley Pensioners, ACE Place, Bay Tree Cookery Academy, Pathways to Work, local schools. and other community organisations. These partnerships broadened our reach, enhanced our wellbeing offer, and ensured cohesive support for residents. We also delivered some of our weekly communily meals at Valley Community Food Hub, supporting both our own beneficiaries and a fellow CIC. Risks and Challenges Growing economic pressures have intensified community need, particularly among families facing food insecurity and rising utility costs. Demand for crisis intervention, warm spaces, and wellbeing support has increased significantly.

Despite Ihese challenges, strengthened partnerships and long-tenn funding have enabled us to respond effectively and maintain high-quality services.

OED08B90-F1DO-83B2-805E-7D2D486CCD60 WOODLANDS COMMUNITY CENTRE LIMITED CHAIR REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2026 As we look back on the past year, it is with great pride that I present the Chairs Report for 2026. Now in its 54th year, Woodlands Community Centre continues to be a trusted and welcoming anchor for the communities of Woodlands, Netherley. and the surrounding neighbourhoods. Each year brings new challenges and new opportunities, yet the Centre remains a place where people of all ages find connection, comfort, and the chance to grow in confidence and wellbeing. The wider environment in which we operate has continued to shift. Rising living costs, increased pressure on families, and growing demand for safe, inclusive spaces have shaped much of our work. Despite these pressures, the Centre has remained steady and responsive, adapting our programmes to ensure that residents continue to receive the support they need. Our warm hub provision, free refreshments, weekly community meals, children & youth programmes and expanded wellbeing activities have become essential lifelines for many local families and older residents. This year also marked a significant milestone in our long-term sustainability. Alongside continued support from valued funders such as Liverpool City Council -youth & Community- this achievement has provided a level of stability rarely afforded to small grassroots organisations and gives our funding strategy a strong and confident foundation. Combined with the ongoing support of The Henry Smith Charity, Garfield Western, whose flexibility enabled us to maintain essential leadership at a crucial moment, we are now able to plan with greater assurance and clarity. Our programmes have continued to evolve in response to rising need. We strengthened partnerships to deliver early intervention 2nd wellbeing support for both adults and young people, expanded our youth offer through creative and physical activities, and deepened collaboration with local organisations to widen access and reduce duplication. These developments have helped us reach more residents, offer more targeted support, and ensure that our services remain relevant and inclusive. Volunteer engagement remains one of our greatest strengths. Many of our volunteers particularly older residents have continued to give their time generously, helping us deliver activities, meals, events, and practical support. Their contribution is woven into the fabric of the Centre and amplifies the reach and impact of everything we do. The Trustees extend heartfelt thanks to our staff, volunteers, partners, and funders-including Liverpool City Council Youth & Community, HAF, Fords Liverpool, Feeding Liverpool, MPAC, LCVS, John Moores Foundation, Merseyside Police, NRF, Garfield Weslern and The Henry Smith Charity. Their support ensures we continue to deliver essential, inclusive services for our community. Woodlands Community Centre enters 2026 with strengthened partnerships, a stable building, and a deeply valued programme of activities. The Trustees remain committed to securing sustainable funding, expanding staffing capacity, and ensuring that our Centre continues to be a safe, welcoming, and transformative space for all.

We do this by working collaboratively with local authorities, voluntary organisations, and residents to advance education and provide inclusive facililies for recrealion, social welfare, and leisure. Our aim is simple.. to improve lives and strengthen community bonds. In line with Charity Commission guidance on Public Benefit, the Trustees have ensured that all activities undertaken this year continue to meet these requirements and serve the wider public interest. Throughout 2025-26, we remained committed to our core aims by strengthening community engagement, widening access to inclusive activities, and responding to rising need. We continued to secure funding aligned with our charitable objectives, generated income through raffles, low-cost activity fees, room hires, and community use, and expanded opportunities for learning, wellbeing, and social connection. Our revised funding strategy, supported by the new five-year unrestricted grant from Liverpool City Council Youth & Community, has provided a strong foundation for long-temi sustainability and operational resilience. ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE As a small grassroots charity, we pride ourselves on being responsive, inclusive, and deeply embedded in the lives of our local residents. This year, we continued to offer free or low-cost universal services tailored to the needs of children, young people, families. and older adults. Our programmes included after-school clubs, youth wellbeing sessions. holiday activities, daytime groups for older residents, digital access support, and targeted interventions for those facing disadvantage or risk. We expanded our wellbeing offer significantly, launching new adult and youth programmes in partnership with local organisations. These sessions provided early intervention, emotional support, and safe spaces for young people navigating increasingly complex challenges. Adults benefited from meditation, relaxation, creative wellbeing, and social connection activities that reduced isolation and improved mental health. Our warm hub provision remained essential. Free tea, coffee, biscuits, and weekly community meals ensured that no resident was left without comfort or nourishment. Families facing rising utility costs and food insecurity relied on the Centre as a safe, welcoming space.

Staff provided practical help to residents facing challenges. "When my washing machine broke, I thought I'd have to carry all my laundry on the bus. Instead, the staff offered me use of the Centre's facilities and even arranged for someone to come out and fix it."

Partnerships and Outreach Partnership working remained central to our success. We collaborated with Speke Training & Education Centre, New Horizons CIC, Valley Community Food Hub, Lee Valley Pensioners, ACE Place, Bay Tree Cookery Academy, Pathways to Work, local schools. and other community organisations. These partnerships broadened our reach, enhanced our wellbeing offer, and ensured cohesive support for residents. We also delivered some of our weekly communily meals at Valley Community Food Hub, supporting both our own beneficiaries and a fellow CIC. Risks and Challenges Growing economic pressures have intensified community need, particularly among families facing food insecurity and rising utility costs. Demand for crisis intervention, warm spaces, and wellbeing support has increased significantly. Staffing limitations remain a challenge, with only three part-time staff delivering a wide range of services. The need for a Youth & Play Coordinalor is increasingly clear lo ensure consistent, high-quality youth delivery. Volunteer engagement remains strong, but benefit- related restrictions conlinue to limit availability. Despite Ihese challenges, strengthened partnerships and long-tenn funding have enabled us to respond effectively and maintain high-quality services.

Fund accounting Unrestricted funds are the charity's free reserves available for the trustees to apply in accordance with the charitable company's charitable objectives. Designated funds are funds set aside by the Trustees out of unrestricted funds for specific future purposes. Restricted funds are subject to specific restrictive conditions imposed by the donor. All restricted funds are accounted for as restricted income and expenditure for the purposes is charged to the fund. Income recognition All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, there is sufficient certainty of receipt and so it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. Income from charitable activities is recognised on an accrual's basis except for grants receivable, which are recognised on the date on which their unconditional payment is confirmed by the donor. Income from other trading activities relates to fundraising income and room hire and fundraising and is recognised when the amount is certain.
