## Crawshawbooth Community Association
## Annual Trustees Report
2025
The past year has been probably the most successful for the Association since the impact of Covid disrupted all our lives and put the activities at the Village Centre on hold for so many months.
At the beginning of the year we got the news that we had been successful in a bid to the National Lottery for funding for a Community Worker’s post for a two year period.
After advertising the post we appointed a trained youth and community worker who works three mornings a week with extra hours at weekend and in the evenings as required.
This means the office is staffed four days out of five which makes it easier to book for events and parties and organise visits for workmen. We also have more staff time to look at funding issues and are currently working towards funding major work on the roof of the original building to address serious damp issues in the top room.
Our user groups have mostly continued to run with the exception of Valley Academy dance group which moved out when the ownership and management changed. However, a Group catering for adults with special needs have proved a lively addition to the users and are currently attending two days a week.
The Out of School Club, and particularly the Holiday Club, still run successfully with the income underpinning the other activities. We are in active talks with the Pre School Committee about the prospect of us taking the Pre School into the fold. We already have some staff in common and a merger would give us the opportunity for economies of scale as well as making sense to the families involved.

Our Library is still not attracting the numbers of users we would like but we are very fortunate in having a really good team of volunteers who are loyal and enthusiastic in all they do.
