| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identfying the diference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its benefciaries and any wider benefts to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | During 2023 / 2024, Time Out Club has seen a further increase in usage by families of Manland Primary School. The number of families using both the Breakfast Club and Afer School club increased over the course of the year. We have been operatng at full capacity afer school on three days per week but are able to contnue to ofer Ad-hoc childcare for Breakfast Club and Afer School days when bookings are not full. Childcare provision at Primary schools is now an imperatve, as the populaton on our surrounding area is increasingly comprised of two working parents who commute, and who wouldn’t be able to maintain a stable household without easily accessible childcare. We contnue to use our current room at Manland Primary School and have agreed with the school that we may use other available space within the school building on days where our room is at capacity. We have increased staf levels to meet the ratos for extra children. We hope to contnue to ofer additonal clubs in the holiday periods. |
