## DIRECTORS’ REPORT (Cont’d) 

## FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST JULY, 2023 

## Trustees Annual Report (TAR) 2022/2023 

During the last year we have started hiring the function rooms out again to generate income, we have also engaged with NHS to provide them with room hire for the mental health sector who offer incontinence sessions and fall prevention classes, which are held by Darlaston All Active twice weekly. We have also secured Energy Redress/ Darlaston Energy Busters to delivery energy advice and visits in the community. 

Darlaston Care share peer support and food parcels continued during the year as we received a 5-month extension. 

We continued to work with the local community, heavily supported by committed volunteers, without whom we would not be able to deliver our services and projects for the local community. We offer fitness classes, community chat momings, community meals with entertainment, day trips and a food bank. Darlaston All Active continue to sign post our community to other organisations for support. 

Darlaston All Active trustees and volunteers will continue to support and raise funds for Darlaston All Active.by approaching future funders and the local community for donations, who are a great help to our charity. We also arrange fund raising event jumble sales and our yearly Santa sleigh run, around the local community which are supported by volunteers during t. | month of December. Money raised from these events support the new ideas our community have, such as community choir, history back in time projects and existing food bank and community meal days. 

We have however, still been able to support the community with support from various funders which include Walsal! Council, HAF, Asda, Housing Support Fund, Community Resetting Fund, TNL Lottery fund and Energy Redress. 

Looking to the future the Trustees are in the process of discussing future options, including external funding, we have successfully gone through stage one for a 3-year reaching community TNL funding bid. 

## The trustees have discussed trying to be part of Walsall Connected, if possible. 

The trustees are very keen on finding donations or funding for the food bank as we have found our local community as well as nationally are struggling with the cost of living, which is impacting their mental wellbeing as well as their families. The trustees will continue to review our business plan during the coming year or so to factor in all the changes and developments. We have now brought new trustees on board who have the experience going forward to support the charity. The challenges of funding and development facing the whole of the voluntary sector will also have an impact on Darlaston All Active but it is important to focus on servicing our Jocal community and partnership working with other local voluntary sector groups. 

The Trustees are confident that Darlaston All Active will continue to play a vital part in the local community in the yea. ahead. 

## Small company rules 

The report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions relating to companies subject to the small companies regime within Part 15 of the Companies Act, 2006.
