Ob'ectives and activities
The overall objective is to improve the levels of education, attainment and

It aims to advance the education and wellbeing of students in the school
by:
Summary of the objects of the
charity set out in its
governing document
Developing effective relationships between the staff, parents and
others associated with the school.
Engaging in activities or providing facilities or equipment which
support the school and advance the education of the students.
Ensuring that all students and families have the basic needs to be
able to function in life.
Nurturing support and partnerships within the community and
business world to ensure we are able to gain sufficient funds to
meet our aims.
TAR
March 2012

To raise the aspirations of young people in the Leigh Park area whilst
ensuring that the student's needs are met and they do not miss out on
opportunities due to financial pressures at home.
Some of the funding is used to offer paid employment to students at the
School. This helps family finances, and we are able to provide training in
managing finance, taking bookings, customer care, event and site
management. This helps students gain valuable work experience when
completing college and university applications. and help them finance
leaving home for university, which would otherwise be a barrier.
Funding has allowed us to develop a small holding where young people
can experience the open countryside, learn how to grow fruit and
vegetables and rear pigs. All the produce and meat are used in the
school kitchens so the young people experience food production, field to
fork. It has also allowed the School to develop the use of hydroponics
with our students in their horticulture lessons.
Summary of the main
activities undertaken for the
public benefit in relation to
these objects (include within
this section the statutory
declaration that trustees have
had regard to the guidance
issued by the Charity
Commission on public
benefit)
The school has been able to continue to provide its MUNCH programme
to provide meals to our students and community and support the Munch
Pantry to help the budgets of our local community go further thanks to
funding from a variety of sources.
Funding has been received to further our Connect programme via
Connect4Generations which enables students to interact with older
generations over a shared meal whilst playing games and providing
company for each other.
We were also able to provide football kit and equipment to our girls
football team and source FA training thanks to funding obtained in the
year.
Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charities
Commission on public benefit.

Section D
Achievements and performance
Community Crisis Funding continues to enable us to meet the needs of
many children and families. We have been able to purchase clothing,
shoes, memberships to clubs, helped subsidise trips and in some cases
white goods for the family home.
Summary of the main
achievements of the charity
during the year
Funding continues to allow us to open the school on Christmas Day and
provide food and presents to the local community.
We received funding from various sources that has enabled us through
our Munch Community Food Programme to provide free two course hot
meals to anyone in our community every weekday of the school holidays,
Thursday tea times throughout the whole year and even Christmas Day.
Established in 2017, Munch initially aimed to offer hot nutritious meals
during school holidays for children. However, its scope quickly expanded
to encompass support for families, seniors, and individuals experiencing
isolation or illness.
We received funding towards providing food for our Munch Food Pantry
which opens most weekdays for a couple of hours where people can pay
£5 and in exchange for a minimum of £15 worth of food. It enables us to
provide fruit and vegetables for free.
Funding has enabled us to continue to explore the area of hydroponics
with our students in their Horticulture lessons and we have been able to
continue to expand our HAF summer programme through the addition of
kitchen garden and cookery sessions to students and parents.
