To promote the benefit of the inhabitants of Stoke Newington, Stamford Hill, Hackney and the surrounding community without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, age, disability, nationality, race or of political, religious or other opinions, 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 interests of social welfare for recreation and leisure-time occupation with the object of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants; 

2. To 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 objects; 

3. To promote such other charitable purposes as may from time to time be determined. The charity shall be nonparty in politics and non-sectarian in religion. The area of benefit ("area of benefit") shall be Stoke Newington, Stamford Hill, Hackney and the neighbourhood together defined by the community users. 

## **Ensuring our work delivers our aims** 

The Boiler House manages three community centres within estates in Hackney, George Downing Estate, N16, Myddleton Grange, N4, Northwold Youth and Community Hub, E5 

The Charity has sourced and supported various activities, classes and events, and services which have benefited a diverse community. Activities have included, Youth support, Food provision, fitness classes, singing, yoga, parent/ carer groups. The Boiler House has also provided a space for training and local voluntary group meetings. It has made it possible for local residents to hire the space for family gatherings at affordable rates. 

The charity took a lead role in the borough during the Pandemic, setting up and managing a Food bank and a longer term community Pantry, serving an average of 80 householde per week during 2021 

The charity works towards offering some paid work to local people and where possible relevant volunteering opportunities. 

## **The focus of our work** 

Our main objectives for the year continued to be the development and support of under used community assets (people and spaces) and working to support the impacts of Covid through our Food provision (Pantry and Food bank) and Youth Hub. 

We continued to offer opportunities for people to build relationships through activities and shared ‘common ground’, improving community cohesion and support at grass roots level 

We continued to run and develop the Community Nursery, located in our N4 building. The focus of the nursery is around school readiness and supporting the individual child’s needs to develop their wellbeing and learning, with particular focus on involving their families. 

We are also embarking on an expansion of The Boiler House to provide additional space and opportunities for the local community. We consulted extensively with local residents and the wider community to understand needs and priorities, we continued to design and gain planning permission to support the co-designed community facilities as part of the Charities expansion plan. 

## **How our activities deliver public benefit** 

All our charitable activities continued to respond to our mission which aims to create stronger/ healthier communities, where each individual has the opportunity to develop their potential and feel part of where they live. We have been delivering this by offering a safe place, working towards reducing isolation, improving social interaction and offering positive opportunities. The activities delivering public benefit are outlined below:

Our activities continue to focus on building relationships between local people and the community capital this can support; whilst working towards creating stronger/ healthier communities, where each individual has the opportunity to develop their potential and feel part of where they live. 

The Charity continues to improve community cohesion by making available a ‘common ground’ through the community spaces as well as offering a diverse selection of activities for the local community to take part in with the aim to develop under used community assets whether this is people or buildings. 

By doing this various benefits occur, local community members become more familiar/ friendly with each other, this helps to reduce isolation, develop local links / networking, develop skills and employment opportunities, reduce antisocial behaviour, increase well-being as people feel part of something and improve health and fitness by community members taking part in local fitness sessions in the centre. 

We are also making voluntary roles available for local community members so they can develop their skill sets, feel part of something and help to involve other community members in the activities on offer. There will also be some paid roles available to help with the general management services of the Boiler House and other centres we hope to take on in the future. Our organisations aims are intended to benefit a diverse selection of the local community, of all ages, ethnic backgrounds, gender and sexual orientation this includes estate residents as well as those from the local areas.

## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31DECEMBER 2019** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Basis of preparation and accounting convention** 

The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared on the accruals basis, under the historical cost convention  and in accordance with the Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)) (issued in October 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis** 

The trustee considers that there are no material uncertainties about the Charities’ ability to continue as a going concern. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the charities income streams and reduced the access of our community centres. We lost significant revenue due to the first lock down measures, where we had to close the majority of our nursery and community centre services. The nursery has since been able to re-open and we hope will be able to continue to provide early years support and development to local families and their children. However, the community centre hire continues to be affected by social distancing measures. while this continues, we are due to lose the majority of this income stream and the provision of activities for local people. We have continued to utilise the space through an on-going food bank, so are still able to engage with local people and offer support to those effected by the pandemic.
