## PARK VIEW COMMUNITY CENTRE ANNUAL REPORT 

## Achievement and performance 

The Community Centre has had yet another testing year due to the covid pandemic following the government guidelines to close again during 2020-21 and as a result there has been a significant loss in income. 

The majority of staff have been furloughed during closure with casual staff returning when we could safely re-open for outdoor activities and ensuring we could adhere to social distancing rules. 

Park View School reduced the recharge for facility use so that the Community Centre was only charged for the months that the facility was open. 

The new online booking system is working well and has been effective in streamlining the process for customers and has received positive feedback. 

During the year we have managed to secure a grant in the sum of £9,630 to run a Crossfit teens programme. 

Given the difficult year that the Community Centre has once again faced it has managed to make a small in year surplus. 

## Future Plans 

The Community Centre has had a positive start to the year and has remained open throughout the majority of September.  However we have recently received advice from public health that due to the rise of cases in the wider community that all indoor activities across both sites should be closed from 29th September until 15th October when the position will be reviewed.  All outdoor activities will remain open. 

The main focus again this year will be to maximize income generation with the hope of remaining open to the public for both indoor and outdoor usage with minimal disruption due to covid.
