Aim of the Charity
The aim of the charity is to provide a wide range of creative leisure and educational
activities for young people which will contribute to them growftng up in a more
inclusive society.
The majority of the Trustees of the Frith Youth Centre are recruited from Chalford
Parish Council.
They delegate the day to day running of the Frith Youth Centre to a Management
Committee of volunteers from the Parish Council and the community who employ a
paid staff of youth workers, administrator and cleaner.
However, because of the Coronavirus pandemic the Centre was closed for the entire
financial year. Despite this, the new Youth Work Team Leader was able to hold
conversations with young people who were congregating outside the Centre.
Actions Undertaken and timescale for the year
The previous Team Leader and Administrator left at the beginning of the year so the
enforced closure because of the pandemic was used to recruit new staff and to
redesign the offer which the Youth Centre makes.
In July 2020, we recruited Liam Mcmullen as the new Youth Work Team Leader to
work alongside the Administrator (already recruited). They have fonned a formidable
t¢am to enhance the work. Later, we then recrui¢ed two new youth workers. Cindy
and James who stsrted in April 2021.
Sarah Berry has taken over as Treasurer on Au&Jiisl 31 st 2020 and has played a
critical role in designing and moniloringi budLJLts.
The Trustees have elected for exempiion from audii under the provisions of the
Companies Act. The accounts for 2019-2020 have en subject to an Indcpendent
Examination and show a surplus for the year of £17.625.

We have recruited new members to both the Trustees and the Management group,
both of which have been chaired by Parish Councilor. Mike Roberts.
In ternis of undertaking youth work, we had planned io reopen in September 2020 but
more coronavirus restrictions delayed reopening into 2021 . The staff used Ihis period
to change and improve the practical functioning of the Centre in 2 important areas.
First. we used the time to undertake renovation work during the summer/autumn
2020 and into the Spring 2021. This covered a new ceilin& lighting, building repairs,
replacing carpets and redecorating. Some young people came in to help with this
while observing Covid restrictions.
Second, Liam, Bev and Sarah made a number of administrative changes as a new
team which covered modifying and enhancing booking and financial procedures and
reactivating our ivebsite. Also, we developed new improved ways of collecting and
storing personal inforniation which are compliant with legislation. We have also
developed new evaluation fornis which will help us measure our programs and
monitor their impact.
Finally, the Frith Youth Centre is now on a sound financial footing with money
received from coronavirus grants and a greater financial commitment from the Parish
Council. There were no private bookings for the use of the centre but so far. we have
been able to cover the financial loss. This is also in line with our Strategy of
confinning the building primarily as a youth centre.
