From 1/5/2021 Period start date To 30/04/2022 Period end date

Charity name: Noah’s Place

Charity registration number: 1169916

Objectives and Activities

SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of
the charity as set out in its
governing document		 Para 1.17 Noah’s Place sets out to promote social
inclusion amongst people with learning
difficulties by preventing them from becoming
socially excluded, relieving the needs of those
who are socially excluded and assisting them to
integrate into society.
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 have been very fortunate to have
managed to overcome many of the
obstacles that the coronavirus brought too
many activity centres some having to close
down or change their activities due to high
costs.
We have managed to keep Noah’s place
running, where possible we have
fundraised and our activities have
increased.
Although it has been hard securing grants
we did manage to fundraise once we were
allowed contact with the general public for
example we once again held tombola’s in
shop centres etc, held fundraising activities
on our land and held sponsored events.
Our vegetable and micro veg gardens have
flourished over the year, selling veg on our
cart to the general public, at the start of
spring many people from our local area
look to see what plants we have for sell
buying them from Noah’s rather than a
garden centre.
Statement confirming
whether the trustees have
had regard to the guidance
issued by the Charity
Commission on public
benefit		 Para 1.18 The trustees of Noah’s place have read
and understand the guidance set out by
the charity commission on public
benefit.

Policy on grant making Para 1.38
Policy on social investment
including program related
investment		 Para 1.38
Contribution made by
volunteers		 Para 1.38 We have a number of volunteers that give
their time and wealth of knowledge to help
teach life skills to our service users, we are
constantly looking for more volunteers as
we feel that this not only helps to keep our
core costs down but also involves people
fromour localcommunity.

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 As we are a charity that supports adults
with special support needs we know the
struggles are service uses go through on a
daily basis.
Our aim is to support them, listen to them
and show them new skills that can be used
outside of Noah’s Place.
This has made a huge difference to many
of our service users as we know from the
many letters of thanks that we get from not
only the carers/parents but also from our
service users themselves.
Since we have been a charity in 2016 and
moving to a new area, we have found
many in the local community now have
more respect and understanding for adults
with special support needs, once they have
visited us and spoken to our service users,
either at one of our open days or when
fundraising.

Additional information (optional) You may choose to include further statements where relevant about:

Achievements against
objectives set		 Para 1.41 We have helped adults with special
supportneeds to obtain new life skills
that have helped them from being
socially excludedfromsociety.
Performance of fundraising
activities against objectives
set		 Para 1.41 Fund raising activities brought people
together again, as our carnivals and shows
came to life again so did our fundraising.
We now have organisations that call on us
when they hold their events such as the
woolsery show and Hartland Carnival to
see if we would like to take part.
Our local village Hartland British Legion
has played a huge part in our fundraising
inviting us to hold BBQ outside to raise
funds and holding quiz nights.
Our sponsored walk was back on with
many of our service users taking part as
well as a table set up in our local town
Bideford where everyone met for their
medals and bystanders brought
merchandise and had a go on our tombola.
Grants have not been easy to come by as
Covid is still playing a big part in those less
fortunate needing funds, with little left for
small charities.
Over the course of a month we try to have
at least two fundraising activities going on
as well as applying for grants.
Investment performance
against objectives		 Para 1.41 We are in the process of raising funds to
become an AQA accredit centre, this will
mean that Noah’s Place will be able to run
achievement courses with our service
users, this we feel will boost their self-
esteem while learning new skills.
We have invested in growing Micro Veg.
this year has seen a good crop which we
have then supplied to a local restaurant
called Pattards we hope to expand on this
further next year.
