Annual report to the Charity Commissioners (y.e. 31.08.2020) 

## **Mary Platt Methodist Pre-school** 

Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) 1178800 

The year to end August 2020 was quite an extraordinary one for our little Pre-school. 

It began with the agreement of an emergency plan to address our funding issues. Our staff worked tirelessly within difficult financial constraints without complaint, and as a direct result of their efforts, the situation was rapidly resolved. Further, we were successful in obtaining outside finance – notable a sustainability grant from the Council and also a gift from a local business charity. By the end of the Autumn term we were on solid ground and had begun to increase our contingency funds. 

We began 2020 with some optimism, only to be hit by the emerging Coronavirus emergency. From early March onwards, our staff and Trustees worked together smoothly to adapt to a rapidly changing situation. The pre-school was closed temporarily on 24 March, but we were able to reopen on a reduced basis on 8 June. 

We and our staff are profoundly grateful for the Government Furlough Scheme and the assistance of our County Council. We were able to avoid redundancies, and the Pre-school, at time of writing, is fully operational and thriving. We are also extremely grateful to Lorton St Methodist Church particularly for the assistance provided to enable us to conform with Coronavirus rules. 

During the year our ex-Manager, Laura Johnson, resigned as a Trustee. On behalf of the Trustees and staff, I offer my profound thanks for all she has done to help Mary Platt, and give every good wish for her future happiness. 

Hazel Purfield, Chair of the Trustees.
