Trustees’ Annual Report For the year 4 April 2024 to 3 April 2025 Repton Community Trust (Charity No. 1169444)
Introduction
The trustees are pleased to present the Annual Report for Repton Community Trust for the year ended 3 April 2025. This year has been one of growth, renewed energy, and continued commitment to our mission to “Put the Heart in Repton” . As always, our work has focused on improving the conditions of life for residents of Repton Manor, Godinton and the surrounding areas through education, recreation, social welfare, and community participation.
Throughout the year, trustees have ensured that all activities deliver clear public benefit and align with the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.
Objectives and Activities
Repton Community Trust exists to bring together residents, voluntary groups and organisations in a shared effort to build a thriving, connected community. Our charitable purposes include:
-
advancing education;
-
providing facilities for recreation and leisure in the interests of social welfare;
-
promoting healthy recreation, including sports such as football, cricket, hockey, basketball and netball.
During 2024–25, we continued to deliver and expand a programme of activities and services that
support these aims, including:
-
The People’s Pantry – providing essential food and hygiene support to residents experiencing food poverty.
-
Food Education Recipe Boxes – enabling residents to cook on a budget, build confidence in the kitchen and learn about healthier eating.
-
Eat Well, Spend Less & Wellbeing Roadshows, delivered in partnership with Ashford Borough Council, offering practical cost-of-living and wellbeing support.
-
The Art Box – fostering creativity, mental wellbeing and social connection.
-
A wide range of healthy recreation activities, including yoga, karate and table tennis.
Our team of staff and volunteers continue to play a central role in delivering these services. Their time, energy and dedication remain one of the Trust’s greatest strengths.
Achievements and Performance
Strengthening Services and Community Impact
This year has seen significant progress across our community programmes. Key achievements include:
-
Growth and stabilisation of The People’s Pantry, strengthening partnerships with food suppliers and enhancing our membership model to secure the Pantry’s long-term sustainability.
-
Continued development of our sustainability strategy, including food rescue, redistribution, composting and a successful gleaning pilot with a local farmer.
-
Installation of The People’s Pavilion, our new outdoor classroom, which has expanded the ways we engage residents and use our grounds creatively and productively.
-
Completion of a comprehensive customer survey, enabling us to improve accessibility, inclusivity and user experience across our services.
-
Investment in outsourced HR support and an Employee Assistance Programme, demonstrating our commitment to the wellbeing of staff and volunteers.
-
Completion of a governance skills audit and review, leading to strengthened trustee recruitment and the commencement of a Chair recruitment process.
Improving Our Facilities: Replacement of the Cabin
A major development this year was replacing the ageing cabin at Repton Connect Community Centre with a modern converted shipping container.
The original cabin, installed in 2018 as a repurposed second-hand unit, had deteriorated significantly and was no longer fit for staff or volunteer use—particularly during extreme weather. With our team growing and only a small reception desk available as office space, the need for a fit-for-purpose workspace had become urgent.
We explored an extension to the main building in 2022 but were advised by Council officers that cost and planning requirements made this unfeasible. A converted shipping container offered the ideal solution—affordable, visually in keeping with the building, and fully compliant with the Second Schedule of our lease. The new workspace now provides staff and volunteers with a comfortable, functional and welcoming environment that supports productivity and wellbeing.
Community Engagement and Partnerships
Two successful partnership initiatives expanded our community offer this year:
-
Jobs Fair with Shaw Trust – providing local residents with direct access to employers and support to find work.
-
CycleCircle Community Sessions – offering free bike repairs and ‘learn-to-fix’ workshops, making cycling more accessible and encouraging active lifestyles.
These partnerships helped broaden our reach and strengthened our commitment to removing barriers to participation.
Financial Review
The Trust ended the year in a stable financial position, supported by strong income from grants and room hire alongside prudent management of expenditure.
We continue to hold reserves to ensure resilience, manage risk and invest in modern, relevant services for beneficiaries. A portion of our reserves is set aside as a sinking fund to meet the requirement for full redecoration of the building at year ten under our lease with Ashford Borough Council. No funds were in deficit during the reporting period.
Structure, Governance and Management
Repton Community Trust is an unincorporated registered charity governed by a constitution. Trustees are appointed for a three-year term in line with constitutional rules, following approval at a properly convened meeting of the trustees.
This year saw important steps forward in strengthening our governance, including the appointment of a new trustee with governance and compliance experience. Our induction process continues to develop as we grow, ensuring new trustees receive the support and information needed to carry out their responsibilities confidently.
Trustee Changes
We record with thanks the service of Trustees who stepped down during the year:
-
Liz Wright – resigned 6 August 2024
-
Sarah Hayward – resigned 27 January 2025
Their contributions to the Trust and community are warmly acknowledged.
Looking Ahead
As we continue to deepen our roots within the community, the Trust remains committed to:
-
strengthening partnerships,
-
developing innovative programmes,
-
improving our facilities, and
-
ensuring our services continue to reflect residents’ needs.
Repton Community Trust is proud of the progress made this year and excited for the opportunities ahead. With the continued support of our volunteers, partners, staff and funders, we will keep building a stronger, healthier and more connected community.
