All essential planning permissions have teen successlully secured, undersLoring our dedicats'on to being a communlty4ed initiative that calers to tjoth present and future needs. This project has been no easy feat but despjte having namgaled through unfamiliar territory and al times quite daunting and challenging, with detemination and perseveiance we saw each challenge as an opportunity tor growth. we have leamed a lot through this transfomative joumey and discovered the power ol persistence and continuous leaming. Every set back served as a steppingstone towards progress. The process of building something meaninglul for the community has been immensely rewarding, proving Ihat even amidst u￿ertainty, passKJn4riven actions can lead to tarrfJible outcomes. We will keep going. Our deslinalion is to cullivate a wbranl commLJnity within Wilstwk & Stockmoor where individuals are eager to live. work. play and leam - a concept known as pla￿Making.

Wilstockhub Trustees. Report Reserves pollcy As a relatively new charity still establishing levels of inojme. we have rL)t yet created a formalised reserves ￿licY. However, it sh(MJld te noted that we do not have any creditors or linancial commitments and therefore we can curtail our expendrture to ensure a healthy reserves18vel is maintained. As the charity develops. we would anticipate our annud expenditure to grow and consequently holding a reserve equivalent to six months 'expenditure would appear prudent whilst the aTd considers the establishment of a formal policy. This policy will involve a review of anticipated spending against known levels of ir￿￿me, to determine our reserves requirement. Ovgrview The fourth year operating as a charlty has teen exciting and we know the best Is yet to Come. Tbo What: Our aim is to build a communlty hub in a new developmenl, currently housirKJ 5,000 residents with no community facilities. building a hub will prowde a way to deliver muthple services to meet the needs of ￿M￿￿jnty.

We are a COMff￿nity-1ed proj&ct. This has formed the design of the building, it will be fit for purpose, th"nging in vital services which are greatly needed to make a change to people's lives whilst also enabling the Ictal economy lo ttourish by encouraging and wholly supporting sorid enterprise. The dltteren¢e we wlll make: A community hub will be the beating heart of the ￿MMunIty, inspiring and emwwering people, giving everyone inclusively. opporbjnities to improve Iheir quality of life addressing health and menlal wellL*ing, social inclusion to help combat loneliness aThJ isolation, giving a sense ol bèlonging and identsty and taking pride in the pla￿ they dl live. This will allow people to live in a multigenerational ￿nnected wmmunity. we believe that social infrastructure is part of liwng in a healihy scKiety. Working with partners such as Local Authorities. Police. Developers, Housing Associations, and others we continue to glow on the platform we created and stay strong. We continue to gain essential skills and leam more. Building more skills and Confiden￿ in going fon¥ard tog8ther. You never stop leaming.
