Annual report for year ending October 31, 2021
Making Waves: Charity number 1163912
The aims of the Making Waves charity are to support people with learning difficulties and/or physical difficulties living in West Yorkshire to help them lead full and purposeful lives in their communities. It primarily helps those who attend the Waves Day Care Centre in Slaithwaite.
The trustees receive donations, consider applications and provide support where it is deemed appropriate. The charity has no fixed costs, running costs or expenditure to which it is committed in advance.
Money for the charity comes from fundraising organised mainly by staff from the Waves Day Care Centre, Waves members, their families and friends along with anyone else who wants to help the charity. Charitable income also comes from donations from individuals and businesses.
-
The charity has a JustGiving page at https://www.justgiving.com/making wavesjg where people can donate cash or cheques made payable to Making Waves at the Waves Day Care Centre. The money raised helps people with learning and/or physical difficulties lead full lives by helping them to meet the costs of:
-
Holidays, short breaks and social activities.
-
Day care placements and therapy.
-
Respite care and overnight breaks at short notice when their families are in crisis.
-
Equipment for the use of members at Waves Day Care Centre.
-
Any other way the charity trustees deem important to help improve the lives of people with learning difficulties and/or physical difficulties.
People can apply for help either through Waves Day Care Centre who will submit the application to Making Waves on their behalf or by emailing chairman of trustees Andrew Hirst at andyjhirst@aol.com
The trustees remain the same with Andrew Hirst as chairman, Vincent Wadsworth as treasurer, Michael Nolan as secretary along with trustees Angela Skelton and Sarah Lockwood.
Over the 12 months ending October 31, 2021, the charity has maintained a healthy financial total which has gone up to £13,071 from £9,887.93 the previous year.
The Covid-19 pandemic continued to have a major impact on the charity and we were unable to hold any trustee meetings during the year.
There were no applications to help Waves members during the financial year.
Around £1,500 was raised for Making Waves in memory of Waves member George Hirst who sadly died on July 5, 2021.
Other money received included general donations via the Making Waves Just Giving page.
