Objectives and Activities

	SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document	Para 1.17	The purposes of the CIO are to carry out activities which act as a resource for young people with disabilities of all ages and abilities throughout Nottinghamshire and the East Midlands by providing advice and assistance and the organizing of programmes of physical activities as a means of: (A)Advancing in life and helping young peopleby developing their skills, capacities, and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as independent, mature, and responsible individuals. (B)Advancing Education (C)Providing recreational and leisure time activity in the interests of social welfare for people living in the area of benefit who have need by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disability, poverty or social and economic circumstances with a view to improving the conditions of life of such persons. Nothing in this constitution shall authorise an application of the property of the CIO for the purposes which are not charitable in accordance with section 7 of the charities and trustee investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and Section 2 of the charities act (Northern Ireland) 2008.
Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts.	Para 1.17 and 1.19	ExPro Sports Foundation is a small, registered charity that provides sport and physical activities for disabled children across Nottinghamshire. We offer a comprehensive range of fun, exciting, and innovative sports- based activities for boys and girls aged 8-24with the focus of keeping disabled young people active, engaged, fit and helathy. ExPro Sports Foundation exists to capture the passion and commitment of families in the community who need support and to ensure that disabled young people have access to sport and physical activities no matter what their disability. We wanted to provide access to sport because we identified that there was a distinct

		lack of provision in sport for people with disabilities across the country as a whole. We provide a safe and professional environment where children with a range of disabilities can try a wide range of sports, learn about the fundamental skills and rules required within different sports and develop their skills further. Wes support children who have many different physical and learning disabilities, working in small groups to help develop young people increase their skill and knowledge.
Statement confirming whether the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit	Para 1.18	All charity trustees have had regard to the commission’s public benefit guidance when exercising any powers or duties to which the guidance is/was relevant.
