## **Objectives and Activities** 

||SORP<br>reference||
|---|---|---|
|Summary of the purposes of<br>the charity as set out in its<br>governing document|Para 1.17|To help children and young people, especially but<br>not exclusively through leisure time activities, so as<br>to develop their capabilities that they may grow to full<br>maturity as individuals and members of society.|
|Summary of the main<br>activities in relation to those<br>purposes for the public<br>benefit, in particular, the<br>activities, projects or<br>services identified in the<br>accounts.|Para 1.17<br>and 1.19|In accordance with the charity’s lease with Waverley<br>Borough Council the permitted use of the building is<br>as a “youth centre and associated café to include<br>community activities taking place at the property for<br>the benefit of the local community including both<br>those provided directly by the Tenant (Haslemere<br>Youth Hub) and those permitted by it.” Users are,<br>therefore, limited to clubs/organisations that provide<br>activities/facilities/advice for youths up to the age of<br>18 years old. But in relation to a young person with<br>Special Educational Needs this is increased to 25<br>years old as the Children and Families Act 2014<br>defines a‘young person’as being aged 16-25.|
|Statement confirming<br>whether the trustees have<br>had regard to the guidance<br>issued by the Charity<br>Commission on public<br>benefit|Para 1.18|During this year the Trustees have had regard to the<br>Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit in<br>providing a facility for the children and young people<br>of Haslemere, and its surrounding area as there is<br>no similar facility available.<br>These activities were, once again, curtailed due to<br>Government Covid-19 restrictions on the opening of<br>community buildings.|

|Contribution made by<br>volunteers|Para 1.38|The building was closed for a few months during this<br>year, due to Government restrictions on Covid-19<br>opening of community buildings, so volunteers were<br>either not needed or unable to be in the building.|

Since then the charity has found it difficult to get volunteers as it is finding people have either had to return to paid employment, or until recently were reticent to be in a community building.

## **Achievements and Performance**

|---|---|---|
|Summary of the main<br>achievements of the charity,<br>identifying the difference the<br>charity’s work has made to<br>the circumstances of its<br>beneficiaries and any wider<br>benefits to society as a<br>whole.|Para 1.20|There are about 30 community clubs/organisations<br>that provide a multitude of activities/facilities/advice.<br>These were curtailed, again, due to Government<br>restrictions on Covid-19.   However, most have<br>returned since the facilities have been fully reopened<br>and some activities are proving even more popular.<br>Unfortunately we are also finding there is more need<br>for support to children’s mental health.|



## **Additional information (optional)** 

You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: 

|Achievements against<br>objectives set|Para 1.41|The main achievement against objectives set this<br>year has simply been to remain open when we have<br>been able to do so, while following Government<br>Covid regulations, so that the charity can provide a<br>facility where people feel safe and welcome to come<br>for their children’s activities, help and advice.|
|---|---|---|
|Performance of fundraising<br>activities against objectives<br>set|Para 1.41|The charity was unable to hold fundraising activities<br>this year. However, Haslemere Town Council did<br>give a revenue grant of £5,000 towards the rent of<br>£21,000 payable to Waverley Borough Council.|

## **Financial Review** 

|**Financial Review**|||
|---|---|---|
|Review of the charity’s<br>financial position at the end<br>of the period|Para 1.21|When Government Covid regulations restricted the<br>opening of community buildings again the trustees<br>were concerned about continuing to pay ongoing<br>overheads.  However, at the year-end trustees were<br>pleased to see that funds were healthier than they had<br>thought they might be.|
|Statement explaining the<br>policy for holding reserves<br>statingwhytheyare held|Para 1.22|Restricted Funds are held for:<br>•specifics mentioned in donations received<br>•known large expenditure that is due to be incurred|

On re-opening<br>attendances group/class numbers had to be restricted.<br>The café was also under-used with people less<br>comfortable in socialising. We also lost the supplier of<br>sandwiches/wraps etc which reduced café income.<br>This loss was due to the supplier unable to find<br>drivers. This is an ongoing problem as other<br>companies are unwilling to supply relatively small<br>orders.|

**Report to the trustees/** Charity Name The Haslemere Youth Hub **members of On accounts for the year** 31 March 2022 **Charity no** 1182842 **ended (if any) Set out on pages** 1-2 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended **31/ 03/ 2022.** 

- **Responsibilities and** As the charity trustees of the Trust, you are responsible for the preparation **basis of report** of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

**Independent** I have completed my examination.  I confirm that no material matters have **examiner's statement** come to my attention (other than that disclosed below *) in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

- accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Act or 

- the accounts do not accord with the accounting records
