Trustees Annual Report
2022-2023
(2/9/2022 to 1/9/2022)
Aim Hi’s purpose is to advance the education of the children at Hazelmere Infant School and Nursery, in particular but not exclusively by supplying goods and services for their benefit not required to be supplied by the local education authority.
Aim Hi generates income through:
-
Fundraising activities
-
Seeking appropriate donations
All meetings included discussion to confirm the trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and were consistent with the objectives of Aim Hi.
COVID-19 and the implications of restrictions and lockdowns have greatly limited our activities yet again this year.
Achievements and Performance
Fund Raising
We were not able to hold any fund raising events this year
Other Funds
Due to the school’s family support worker leaving, it was not possible to continue with the Essex Community Foundation’s project and as such we had to return the grant received.
Amazon Smile donations linked to supporters shopping continue to provide a small, but welcome income.
We also received two small donations.
Projects Funded
We funded a mobile zoo visit to the school and also a day for a mobile Planetarium.
Financial Review
See attached financial statements for details
Summary:
Income: £4291
Expenditure: £7238 (vast majority was refunded grant to ECF)
Balance at end of Financial Period: £2296
The Year Ahead
We are committed to relaunching the efforts of Aim Hi and reintroduce more major fund-raising efforts and putting on events for our community.
Covid has reduced the number of people who are looking to volunteer.
Structure, Governance and Management
Aim Hi has the constitution of a Charitable Incorporated Organisation
Regular trustee meetings are held. Efforts are made to recruit trustees from the local school community although this year this was not possible. No vote is required for this purpose.
We rely on a dedicated group of volunteers to provide support at large events.
