Moving fofward with the chartty in this very un￿rtain time. Our objective
is to get back to Lowestoft Thursday Club as soon as the government

juts how much they rely on Lowestoft Thursday Club for their physical
and mental wellbeing and therefore we as volunteers and trustees will be
making sure we do everything we can within the government guidance lo
get back up and running as soon as we are legally allowed to. We have

achievements made other than keeping in touch with our members
through our social media accounts and reassuring them we will get back
to Club as soon as we possibly can. We have secured a bigger venue in
order to allow more social distancing when we return.
Summary of the main
achtevements of the charlty
during the year
We have had lots of enquires from both volunteers and members who

Section E
Financial review
Our policy on reserves has just been reviewed and we l¢)ok at the tsvo
main aspects of the charity (transportation and entertainment). As we
have chosen to lose the transportation this year we believe thi5 will safe
us a lot of money in orderfor us to gain more entertainers for Club and
deal with the rising cost of this. We have changed venue which will be an
additional fee however this is minimal in the grand scheme. We have
reached out to members to try and eslablish when we return if everyone
will feel comfortable doing this in order to establish if the subs money will
be enough and we have had a very positive response wtth actually move
people wanting to join when we relum. The reseNe5 we set aside
provide financial slabiltty and the means for the development of our
principle activity. We intend to maintain our reserves al a level of
£6 500.00.

Further financial revlew details {Optional infomiation)
The charities principle source of funds is fundraising. Unfortunately, there
has not been much of this we could have done re￿ntlY however we are
very grateful for the charitable donations of the local community. Luckily
our outgoings when we are not open are very very minimal and therefore
we will not be in a worse position financially because we have nol been
open. When we are allowed to retum, we will look to resume fundraising
in the local area.
