TRUSTEES REPORT
This is the fourth year from the 1[st] October 2016 and the anti-social problems experienced in the past has greatly improved. The Slades Park Pavilion is also an asset with Active Dorset organising refreshments, toilet facilities and outside sports, such as football, rugby and cricket.
Due to the Pandemic both the Community Centre and the Pavilion have been closed or partially opened during the year.
Trustees were grateful that our NPT have helped control the Anti-Social activities within our area.
The floor of the hall at the Centre is showing wear and tear and in need of attention but this will be considered in 2021 when and if we are back tosome normal activities.

CHARITABLE OBJECTS
This is our third Annual Report as a Charitable Incorporated Organization.
Our primary responsibility is to manage the Ensbury Park Community Centre on behalf of BCP Council. The EPCC is situated at Slades Park, north of Bournemouth, which is managed by the Parks Dept.
The Committee/Trustees meet monthly except in August. Our aims are to maintain an active Community Centre with a few different Community activities each week. Additional hirings to outside Groups and Individuals contributes to our running costs. The wealth and health of a Community Centre is important for the enjoyment/recreational and community spirit with all age groups using the one and only hall. There is a facility for making a cup of tea or coffee and a sink for washing up with a supply of hot water. This facility is available for groups hiring the hall. Milk, coffee, tea and sugar are supplied by the management.
We do have a small office, also a secure storeroom where regular hirers of the Centre leave their items along with our cleaning equipment.
We advertise the activities by handing out or delivering leaflets within our area and advertising on the website. These are updated when a group decides to cancel their regular booking.
Visitors and hirers are given a pen to take with them. Our name and telephone numbers are on the pen for them to contact us if they wish or need too. There are a few noticeboards in our area including the outside wall of the centre, where we can secure our posters.
Our annual surplus is saved in a fixed interest account toward future improvements to the Centre.
The Ensbury Park Community Association will work with Active Dorset to encourage a greater footfall of all ages, ethnicity, gender and those who suffer from a disability, to participate in building a Community Spirit and to take ownership of the future development within Slades Park.
