Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole.	Para 1.20	The club offers somewhere for young people to come and socialise in a safe environment, in both structured and non- structured activity. The charity provides out of school activity for young people. It offers a place to go that is affordable and that offers a wide range of activities that are chosen by the young people that attend. Members are also involved in setting the behaviour standards of the club. The range of activities offered are chosen in discussion with the members and our ability to organise events. A regular survey of members is carried out to ensure the club is run for the benefit of its members. The Youth Centre has increased facilities in the Iver area for young people where none existed before. Unfortunately, as a result of the Covid Pandemic, the club remained closed for the whole of the Year. Regular trustee meetings were held to assess the safety of re-opening and in Summer 2021 it was agreed to re-open in September 2021.
