In Planning our activities for the year, we kept in mind the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit at our trustee’s meetings.
Community Centre:
Throughout the year BVRA has hosted Councillor surgeries where members of the public are able to come to our community centre to meet with the elected Councillors for Brent in consultation meetings. This takes place once a month and it is held for two-hour period. People from all over the borough have the opportunity to come to a neutral venue to garner advice and voice their concerns.
Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public
This venue and service is a great benefit for people to seek advice without having to make appointments. It is on the main road and has wheelchair access. We welcome all people within the area of benefit regardless of personal background, faith, gender, personal circumstances.
We liaise with the Area Housing Manager and their Legal team to secure the Lease on the Community Centre; this will relieve us from the restricted use and allow us more freedom to extend our service to the community and for the public benefit.
Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)
Our trustees visit members of the community to invite them to meetings and encourage participation by consulting and offering an open-door policy to speak to any of the trustee’s in regards to issues they may be having.
We still encourage this and will help member of our community or signpost to other organisations who will help them.
You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about:
- policy on grantmaking;
We are grateful for the many hour’s volunteers, including member volunteers, have spent encouraging the Residents to participate in new and developing plans we have for 2021.
Without this valuable contribution of time, we would not be able to achieve our goals.

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
BVRA were able to secure a meeting in regards to finalising our lease for the Community Centre space with Notting Hill Genesis, (NHHG) Legal team.
We have the Final draft of the Lease BVRA still needs to sign the final lease papers, this will be completed once NHHG has carried out all the agreed repair’s maintenance books, Keys, etc and finalise the handover document BVRA was instrumental in negotiating the parking Management and keeping in mind the Residents that were promised priority. A more safe and fair parking is in place for the Resident of Barham Village. Our volunteer participated in overseeing all Residents was notified of the works to be carried on our streets; in order for the Road to be correctly marked up to be compliant to be managed by our Local Authority. BVRA currently have decided to have reserves as a contingency and for Brief statement of the upcoming expenses. One of the major objectives that we have is to open charity’s policy on reserves our Community Centre to the wider public and host events and meetings that will be beneficial to community morale. At present our reserve limit is £15000. This is to anticipate all the start-up costs that will be necessary for the upkeep and running of the Community Centre once the lease has been completed. The funds will cover expenses such as insurance, furnishing, staff, equipment for events etc. The hope is that the Community Centre will be in full operation by the end of 2021. Once in full operation the funds will be used to cover such expenses completely. It will also be our intent to rebuild the fund so that over time we are able to use the funds in the event of a financial emergency. Our plans still remain the same for now we just have to delay it until we are able to open the Community Centre. We might have to spend a little more to promote our building.

Other optional information
When the Community Centre is fully launched, we will begin with popular group classes like Yoga and Pilates.
We intend to offer coffee mornings to gather information from residents and the public about the services they would like to be run at the Centre.
We are also aiming to collaborate with other groups to offer a wider choice of activities for our residents, making it more affordable and cost effective.
We will have BAM (a virtual help desk) along with a member of staff to navigate the system We have a small office to hire for local business, alongside another office which offers hotdesking. There is a large function room available for hire for conferences/meetings and parties. The function room can be divided to accommodate two smaller groups.
With the help of volunteers and fund-raising events this would highlight the Community Centre and the new activities we are bringing to the area we hope to cover events for all ages.
