Charity name: Northwich and District Youth Centre CIO

Objectives and Activities

	SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document	Para 1.17	To advance in life and relieve needs of young people resident in Northwich and its surrounding areas through the provision of recreational and leisure time activities provided in the interest of social welfare, designed to improve their conditions of life and providing support and activities which develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals. To further or benefit the residents of Northwich and its surrounding areas, without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other opinions by associating together the said residents and the local 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 objective of improving the conditions of life for the residents.
Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts.	Para 1.17 and 1.19	We continue to provide premises and facilities for many Community and Youth groups within the Northwich area. We have once again maintained without increase a very cost- effective hourly hire rate of £10. As a Charity we continue to support Youth and Community groups by maintaining low charges and absorbing all the other associated costs of running a complex building that requires a substantial amount of ongoing maintenance. During this next year we will have to review hire charges as the costs of running the building in the current cost of living crisis continue to spiral.

Statement confirming whether the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit	Para 1.18	The Trustees continue to be aware of the Charity Commissions guidance on public benefit and decisions taken by the Trustees during the year reflect this.

Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.	Para 1.20	We reopened our building during the year in line with Government guidance for Covid precautions. The vast majority of our hirers returned but some community groups did not survive the various lockdowns. We continued with a good mix of groups using the Centre encompassing Sports, Youth Groups, Music, Disability (SEND) Groups, Dance groups and we also provided space in our upstairs offices for a schools group who provide support for pupils who are finding school a challenge and need extra support. Probation Services at one time occupied this space but following the government reorganisation they left the Centre during the period. We received modest grant income of £2000 in the year and spent £12055 on repairs and renewals. Our hire income recovered to £23688 and our total income was £31541. We achieved a surplus for the year of £2671. We expect that substantial additional costs will be incurred in 2022/2023 as we

replace carpets and first floor windows. We have moved forward our plans for a major scheme to refurbish and modernise our much loved but dated building which will be reported on in greater detail in a subsequent TAR. We continue to hold good reserves in our Bank Account and have Investments with M&G and Blackrock. The Investments are ‘specie funds’ and cannot be utilised without Charity Commission approval. We also own the Freehold Property housing the Youth Centre and the long-term lease in respect of the adjacent Property known as Baxter House.
