## **Description of the charity’s trusts** 

Type of governing document Memorandum and Articles of Association Incorporated 6/12/2010 

How the charity is constituted St Denys Area Community Association is a company limited by guarantee, and a registered charity 

Trustee selection methods The managing body is the Board of Trustees which is elected annually at the Annual General Meeting 

## **Section C Objectives and Activities** 

The Trustees of the St Denys Area Community Association are committed to building a thriving community centre with, and for, all the many and diverse residents in the area. 

We wish to draw on the resources of local residents and organisations and work in partnership to develop voluntary activity in the community. 

We will continue to work hard to develop the community centre as the hub of the St Denys community, working to enhance the community cohesion and a further sense of community. 

The development of the charity is guided by the following objectives.  To: 

1. Promote the benefit of the inhabitants without distinction of age, disability, nationality, race, political, religious or other opinions, sex or sexual orientation, by associating together the said inhabitants and the statutory authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interest of social welfare for the recreation and leisure time occupation with the object of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants. 

2. Establish, or secure the establishment of a community centre and to maintain and manage the same (whether alone or in co-operation with any statutory authority or other person or body) in furtherance of the objectives. 

3. Promote such other charitable purposes as may from time to time be determined. 



(Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document) 

## **Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects** 

We have started to develop the centre as a place where people can visit and find out what is happening in the area, enjoy activities, make social contacts, and offer their help. 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities the Board of Trustees has given careful consideration to the charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular to its supplementary public benefit. 

The St Denys Area Community Association provides: 

1. Buildings/facilities/open space for residents to meet together in the pursuit of a hobby, sport, educational training, association or other recreational activity.  During the year we were proud to offer facilities to: 

   - R Community 

   - Highfield School of Dance 

   - Science of the Soul 

   - Southampton Jitsu Club 

   - Slimming World 

   - Soulcatchers band 

   - A Better Back 

   - Bodywork 

2. Facilities to other charities or voluntary bodies 

3. Advocacy, advice and information to the residents of the local St Denys community 

4. Fund raising in furtherance of these activities through the hiring of our facilities.  We recognise that there is balance to be struck between generating income and making our activities accessible to those on lower incomes, and will continue to assess how we can run our activities in light of this. 



## **Section D Achievements and Performance** 

The outdoor Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA) is used informally for basketball and football sessions. 

The Covid-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the centre, with income being considerably reduced as most groups were not able to meet due to social distancing rules.  The centre was able to remain open because of R Community’s involvement while they kept a reduced service running for their clients. 

In July 2020 following the easing of lockdown restrictions a meeting was held to discuss groups returning to use the centre.  The groups that were able to return were the Soulcatchers band, Slimming World, a martial arts club, a support group for people with back problems, dance classes and a church group. 

The further lockdown imposed in November 2020 reduced hiring income again and the only groups that were able to continue meeting upto the end of March 2021, the period covered by this report, was the back problems support group and R Community Day Service. 

The community association was fortunate to receive a small business grant from the city council which reduced the loss made in the accounts.
