Chairman's Report
At the close of 2022 the Heathrow Special Needs Centre continues to provide its core
services to clients with varying degrees of special needs who attend our safe. secure and
friendly environment here in Longtord.
This year has seen an end to Covid-19 restrictions that have proven to be such a challenge to
all over such a long time. We have maintained the strict signing in procedure for all visitors
and improved hand cleansing options as these are beneficial together with the need for
advance bookin8 of clients on four days of the week. This ensures meaningful activities are
assured for specific users and staffing levels match daily requirements.
WalkAbout Wednesdays continue to be popular wtth an average 70 beneficiaries on that day
and although no guarantee of related tasks this unbooked attendance often acts as a lead to
returning in a more structured manner on other days by appointment. Wednesdays are
hectic always engaging and fun.
It had been hoped that the financial situation in the country would improve post pandemic
leadin8 to better levels of fundin8 for the Centre however global issues have prevented that
recovery and combined wtth increased costs we end the year in s difficult place. Your Board
of Trustees, to whom l am grateful fortheir fortitude, have continued to provide support and
assistance to the Centre in so many ways as we guide ourselves through these times.
Both myself and the Trustees wish to fom)ally thank ourstaff and volunteers for ensuring
the Centre both delivers a unique experience for our clients as well as caring for our animals
who create that interaction that is the highlight of any visit.
At the end of 2022 there are signs of improvement in businesses wishing to reconnect with
us as the airport and associated companies stsrtto recover confidence. Funding from grant
providers is reduced asthese organisations have so many additional requests due to the cost
of living crisis. It is hoped that 2023 will see the frutts of our proactive efft>rts to reach out to
likeminded sUPPOrters will help put the Centre on a more sustained path regards funding.
We receive many kind words and testimonials from clients, carers and parents that show
why the Centre is such a valued resource to those who benefit from attending and, although
for confidentially reasons we cannot make many of these publicly available, it is knowing the
tsngible difference the Centre makes to the lives of disadvantaged people that drives us to
continue our work.
To close I would once again to thank all who support the aims of Heathrow Special Needs
Centre and allow us to create happy moments for all our visitors and we look forward to
continuing this for many years to come.

Treasurers Report
The Charrty Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2022 follow and indude details of
restricted grants. The Accounts have been indepeThJently examined by S M Amistrong and his
report is also attached.
At the start of 2022 a positive trend continued for the centre to receive increased numbers of
visitors to site, while also experiencing an ongoing challenge to fvndraising amidst increased
costs across the board.
Overall Donations and Grants in 2022 were improved compared to 2021, reflecting
increased donations from organisations that support us in particular. Whilst this is the
most positive post covid result experienced. it is important to note that everyday operating
costs have also increased rapidly, continuing to put tKessure on finances and maintaining
difficult environment in which to balance the books while maintaining services for our
visitors.
Govemment support in 2022 retumed to a more typical level. being very minimal funding
from local or central government which is disapFointing, given the benefits provided by
the ￿ntre to many disadvantaged residents of the area.
Donations from Corporate and other organisations substantially increased in 2022 versus
2021, to the point that this income covered the above mentioned reduction in govemment
support. The Trustees recognise the difficult environment that companies in the local area
have experienced in recent years and it is very posTlive to see the return of funding from
local businesses arKI chari(able organisations. IAlhile funding for regular running costs is
absolutely key to the success of the centre, it has also been encouraging to see the
groups that support us also retum wf(h donations of time, skills and materials toward the
upkeep of sits and prOVi￿On of ServI￿S to our benefiaaries.
Other donations received from individuals was broadly in line with 2021. It is hoped that
with increasing visitor numbers that this area of fvndraising will also improve. noting that
as servi￿$ are free to visttors at the point of delÉvery, the centre is gratebjl for all
individuals that choose to make donations to the centre.
Trading income remained broadly flat in 2022 versus 2021.
Regarding costs. the Trustees have maintained a strong focus on efficiency and minimising
cost to allow us to operate within available resources. Infiationary pressures have had an
acute impact in this area. making ti unwable to operate a budget in the same way as 2021.
The ￿ntre exFeCted to need £7,500 per n￿nth to cover CO￿ running costs in 2022 but as
this funding was not secured, the Trustees instead continued to focus on delivering the
maximum client benefrt for a reduced income. Looking toward 2023 and a known high
inflation environment, like for like running costs are increased by over 10% year on year.
Hence, to maintain existing core offerings to our visitors. the ￿ntre is targeting a regular
income in excess of £7,5¢XI per month to cover basic employees. wages, utilities. animal feed
& husbandry and repairs & maintenan￿.
In tems of overall available resources. the charity ended 2022 wrf(h slightly improved cash
reserves and undeposited late donations totalling £40,000, though as in my last report this is
gntficantty less than available prior to the pandemic. The Tnjstees seek to retain 6 months of
running costs in unrestricted cash reserves to provide security of serrfice provision. Raising
sources of regular unrestricted fvnds remains a priority for the centre.
For those individual donors who can make and sign a Gfft Aid Declaration, the charity can

reclaim the Income Tax content of the donation from HM Revenue and Customs.
