## **DARTMOOR ACTIVITY CENTRE** ## **Annual Report to 31[st] October 2021** The Dartmoor Activity Centre, Haytor, Newton Abbot TQ13 9XS is registered with the Charity Commissioners (Number 1177275) as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). It is constituted by a Constitution and administered by a Board, currently comprising of six trustees and supported by advisory committee members: Chairman Mr. David Aggett Vice Chairman Mr. John Wood Hon. Secretary Mrs. Charlotte Badock Hon. Treasurer Mr. Kevin Grainger Trustee members: Mrs. Diana Dale, Mr. Howard Stamp. Advisory committee members: The Rev Andrew Prout BA, Messrs.’ Andrew Bearne, Daniel Bearne, Glenn Bearne, Peter Billing, Gordon Dale, Jason Frost and Jake Smith. In setting objectives and planning for activities, the trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit. The object of the CIO is to encourage the training and development of character and life skills of young people by the provision of residential facilities on Dartmoor in Devon. The CIO receives a small proportion of the income from each booking of the Dartmoor Activity Centre (DAC) but is only responsible for very limited aspects of the day to day expenditure of the Centre. The CIO is also active in sourcing grants to further develop the Centre and the facilities that it is able to offer. The Centre normally caters for groups drawn from the Boys’ Brigade, The Girls’ Brigade, Scouts, The Girl Guides, Schools, Colleges, Churches and similar organisations from across the country. However, due to the impact of Covid-19, bookings in this financial year were negligible as, in line with government guidelines, the DAC was closed for most of the period. During the time that the Centre was closed the focus, as in 2020, continued to be the maintaining and improving of the site. This has included various measures to improve the environmental performance of the Centre. The Committee sincerely thanks Mr. Iain Ashton, the Centre manager, for his ongoing vision and superb work at the Centre. This has included creating new activities, programmes and plans for the future, planning and overseeing site improvements and assisting in sourcing grants and additional funding. The CIO has continued to benefit from Government COVID support during the year in the form of grant funding. The Trustees are reviewing their reserves policy in order to assess what the appropriate level of reserves will be going forward. Total reserves at 31 October 2021 amounted to £58,836 of which free reserves were £9,112. Looking forward, the Trustees consider that both the CIO and the DAC are in a good position. The Centre itself is in an excellent condition and we are pleased to report it is starting to welcome groups again, post COVID. The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the CIO is exposed, in particular those related to the health and safety and finances (and including levels of occupancy and consideration of the challenges of the impact of Covid-19 and current global economic challenges). The trustees are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate our exposure to the major risks that they have identified, including ensuring that the Charity has adequate insurance in place.
