Charity Narne.. Just Good Friends Club
Charity Number- 1177416
Charity Address . 13 Crossroads BL¢siness Park, 10 Creswell Road, Clowne S43 4PU
The objectives of Just Good Friend5 Club ICIOI are to provide social and leisure activities and
general support to adults with learning difficulties in Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire to
encourage friendship, independence, taking responsibility, learning skills and increased self-
advocacy.
Trustees Regard .. FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT, THE PROMOTION OF SOCIAL INCLUSION
AMONG ADULTS WITH LEARNING DIFFICULTIES IN NOTtINGHAMSHIRE AND DERBYSHIRE
WHO ARE SOCIALLY EXCLUDED FROM SOCIETY, OR PART5 OF SOCIETY, AS A RESULT OF
HAVING A LEARNING DIFFICULTY BY.. IA) THE PROVISION OF RECREATIONAL AND LEISURE
TIME ACTIVITIES PROVIDED IN THE INTEREST OF SOCIAL WELFARE, DESIGNED TO IMPROVE
THEIR CONDITIONS OF LIFE,.181 PROVIDING SUPPORT AND ACTIVITIES WHICH DEVELOP
THEIR SKILLS, CAPACITIES AND CAPABILITIES.
Just Good Friends Club have delivered their core service of supporting Adults with Learning
Disabilities by way of providing Day Social Hubs. Evening Clubs and N ightclub events.
Alongside this we have developed a Community Sensory Garden where we hold events
including the local primary school, volunteer groups and the Ioc31 community. We have a
Memory Meadow where individuals have planted seed bombs in memory of loved ones also
with wishes and thoughts which are important to them.
We have also opened a Youth Club for 11-17year old with Learning Disabilities and
additional needs, working with Thrive.
Within the Hubs, Clubs & Nightclubs we have supported 263 people who require additional
support. The community who use the garden both daily and attending the events we
provided is averaging 60 per month even if this is just having somewhere to sit away from
the world and enjoy the space which is also dog friendly.
The community events that we held included the opening day of the garden itself, planting
day with our members, the primary school and the local Wl. We also provide space for local
traders to iell their product and encourage this to be people who wouldn't usually be able
to afford the rental prices as we don't charge for this.
We have 10 volunteers who support us in all areas and a board of 4 trustees who are also
volunteers. All paid staff offer volunteer hours too especially when we are having day trips
and weekends away. We have had 4 Day trips and 3 weekends away which include seaside,
city breaks, youth hostel 3550ciation, outdoor activities, theatre vislts, Christmas markets
and our first self-catering break which was fantastic to see all the hard work put in to
promoting independence coming to fruition.

Our Hubs, Clubs, Nightclubs, Youth Club and Community Garden are heavily involved in
connecting communities. We don't only support our members in being part of the
community, we encourage and support the community in engaging with our members too.
The Community Garden has been an integral key in making this happen. It has provided a
space where everyone can get involved at any time whether that be attending an event,
having some time enjoying the way the plants stimulate the senses, simply having a rest
after walking their dog or having somewhere away from the local park to spend with
children on the way home from school. We have many members of the community who
volunteer their time to maintain ing the garden and planting where they feel they can
donate to the space. These individuals aren't logged as volunteers because it is provided as
a space for everyone to feel comfortable in making it their own.
We are working with the local council Let's Chat Scheme, signposting people who are feeling
lonely or isolated to the relevant help using QR codes provided in the garden. However
several people from the community have fed back that they are so gratef ul for thi5 space as
just having a welcoming destination is encouraging the m to get out of the house and some
people have connected with old school f riends, work colleagues and even relation who they
haven't spent time with for many years despite living in the same village. All staff have put
endless volunteer hours into fundraising including coffee mornings, raffles, tombolas, local
galas, sponsored walk5 and attending promotional events.
Sadly, we haven't progressed at the level that we ￿ntended to at the beginning of the
application / funding. This is due to situations out of our control which are increase in
National Minimum Wagethe budget cuts for our members. The level of impact this has had
on the charity is significant and something that no one would have expected or been able to
plan for. In such a short period of time our outgoings have increased by almost 50%. This
includes room hire increasing, utility bills, staff coast and general supplies. Also, any coach
hire we have required and the hotel bookings.
We did have to take the decision to close our 4th Hub which was based at Nether Langwith.
We reached a point where we were losing approx. £IOOO per month due to the members
budget cuts and staff cost increases. We found a way to support the members by integrating
them with the nearest Hub at Clowne. We haven't been able to open any more Nightclubs
but still have the one in Chesterfield. Thi5 is established and doing well however only has an
average of 80 attendees per month whereas it ha5 been over 100 in earlier years. Again, due
to individuals not having the funds available to attend.
Even in the current financial climate we are still able to offer vulnerable people, on low
incomes, the help and support they need. Everyone who attends our clubs know they afe
welcome, safe and are surrounded by people who want the very best for them. We are very
proud that we are still finding ways to grow and offer more services to the communitv.
Particularly bringing different parts of the community together. This is all completed by the
thing we are m05t proud of and that is the team at JGFC, we are passionate, resilient,

hardworking, committed and determined that we will get the best for our members by
working with their communitv.
