SESSIONS.

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 benefit)

Perkisound is a unique, innovative and musically inspired recreation centre for people with additional needs, their families, friends and carers, based in the grounds of a 2.5 acre former garden centre in North Warwickshire. Although the centre has a remote rural feel, we are conveniently located off a main road less than 10 miles from Coventry, Nuneaton, Birmingham, Tamworth with plenty of secure parking. Perkisound provides a safe place to play, learn, enjoy and develop through music and recreation which we believe can promote general health and wellbeing. A space where people can express themselves freely and with confidence. We love to play and bring people together to increase social networking opportunities and generally have a good chat and a cup of tea!

Section D Achievements andperformance
Summary of the main
achievements of the charity
during the year		 For the period February 1st2020 – 31stJanuary 2021 Perkisound has
continued to operate with a private hourly booking system, this started
from October 2019 replacing bi weekly drop in events where people did
not have to book. Trustees agreed that this system was better as it give
us more insight into numbers for staffing and volunteer purposes and
has allowed us to open every weekend and every day during school
holidays (except during lockdown)
During this period we purchased a commercial standard trampoline
which meets the correct safety standard. The WPH fund Warwickshire
covered most of this cost. This has greatly improved facilities and it very
popular with beneficiaries. We added a rock hold climbing tunnel and a
bespoke water pump play feature to the sensory area, both items made
by a local trademan ‘Vervewood.’A new digital piano was also purchased
for the indoor music area.
From March 23rd– July 4thPerkisound had a mandatory period of closure
due to lockdown. During this period trustees engaged in site
maintenance and grant applications. The decision was made to remove
the hired sensory room due to Covid restrictions and uncertainty around
reopening. Upon reopening in July 2020 we were fully booked during the
remaining period up until the start of school term in September. From
then bookings continued to be strong during weekends.
For the period February 2020 – January 2021 Perkisound welcomed 681
visitors. Due to Covid restrictions all facilities have been outside with no
indoor areas open. Sanitiser has been onsite since reopening in July and
dispensers have been installed. The centre has seen a significant increase
in enquiries and new service users during this period and has been
successful in securing several grants for the 2021-22 period.
