Section C Objectives and activities

The object of the CIO is the advancement of education for the public benefit of people under 25 in England and Wales in particular Summary of the objects of the but not charity set out in its exclusively by the provision of story writing workshops and governing document courses and sensory equipment and environments to support the development of literacy

March 2012

TAR

During the year the charity delivered 2 day workshops to 2 schools in Sandhills and Barton Primary Schools in Oxford returning to the area the organisations, that closed to form the new charity, first worked.

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)

Being a small charity, and given the disruption caused by Covid, it has been difficult to establish ourselves. However, during this year we have forged partnerships with Heritage Lincolnshire and Lincoln Central Library and developed plans to use heritage buildings as venues for story writing workshops (initially Grey Friars in Lincoln and Fydell House in Boston Lincolnshire) where the venues in themselves will help to spark the children’s imaginations and, where required, we will enhance them with Sensory equipment. An additional benefit for the children will be to introduce them to heritage buildings and encourage them to regard them as places they are welcome (or reinforce this if they have visited before).

The partnerships have enabled us to secure funding to deliver 8 x 2 day workshops, train a new Workshop Leader, improve our sensory offer and create publicity materials. The workshops will be delivered in the next financial period.

In planning the above work the Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit.

Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)
