LEffERFROMTHE CHAIROF TRUSTEES KC Comrnunity Hive NII(KI WOORE We are pleased to present ourAnnual ReFX)rt for 2023-2024-a year of significant transition and continued growth. Following several flooding incidents at our previous premises, The Underground, we made the decision to relocate to Kings Cliffe Active (KCA). This move marked not just a change in location, but also a fresh chapter in our story. With the relocation came a rebranding ofour charity, now proudly known as Kings Cliffe Community Hive. In March 2024, Dawn stepped down as Administrator. We would like to extend our sincere thanks to her for herdedicated support overthe past few years. After Easter, we relaunched our services at KCA with renewed energy and fccus. We introduced a Stay and Play group for parents/guardians with children aged 0-4 and reintroduced ouryouth Club for children aged 4-11. To better serve our community, we aligned the Youth Club's timing with the end of the KCA-based after-school club, allowing for a smooth transition between the two. Additionally, we began offering hot meal options at Youth Club-a change that has been warmly received by both children and parents. In April, ouryouth Worker, Teagan, began her maternity leave. We welcomed (korgie Atkinson as a temporary replacemenL who ran both the Youth Club and oursummercamp in August. As attendance at the Summer Camp was lower than anticipated, we are reviewing the format for next year. A highlight of the year was our much-loved Annual Duck Race, which once again brought the village together in a day full of fun and community spirit It was also a very successful fundraising event, helping to support ourongoing work. In September, Georgie moved on to pursue a teaching career. We thank her sincerely for her hard work and enthusiasm during her time with us. Throughout these changes, our Manager, L￿, has provided outstanding leadership. L￿ oversaw our relocation, rebranding, website redesign, as well as the the day-to-day administration. He also managed our grant applications, securing a total of £26,684.86, with thanks to donors including Augean, the National Lottery Community Fund, Cliffe fest CIC and Kings Cliffe Parish Council to name a few. Dueto challenges in recruiting a newtemporaryYoLrth Worker, L￿ stepped in to lead Youth Club sessions. Attendance remains strong, and feedb￿k from children has been overwhelmingly positive-especially in appreciation of the larger space and enhanced facilities available at KCA. We would like to thank Kings Cliffe Active fortheir continued partnership, L￿ and our dedicated volUnt￿rS for their tireless efforts, and of course, our fellow TrUSt￿S fortheir guidance and support. We look forward to continued growth, new opp)rtunities, and deeper community impact in 2024- 2025. [e-mail] @kccommunityhive www.kccommunityhive.wordpress.com
