St .Faith’s Community & Youth Foundation 2022 AGM- Interim Chair Report
Activities & Lettings
Since the easing of the covid restrictions last year, when only the Kindergarten and Older Adult Support Groups were able to operate, most of the regular users have returned to their usual activity slots, save for Tumble Tots, Kids can Kick and Art Group who were not able to reestablish, and the Exercise for Older Adults, although restarted, were not able sustain viable numbers.
The Christmas Lunch Club was very successful and well received by those attending. Not only did it provide the opportunity for people to meet socially who might otherwise be overlooked, it did provide a platform to develop stronger relationships with other groups, in particular the HHUC volunteers. It is hoped that this can be developed for other occasions throughout the year, and certainly repeated for this Christmas period.
As part of the future planning to allow the expansion and development and support of current and prospective new users, it is intended to establish a volunteer programme, that will be led by the Centre Manager and Outreach Worker.
Last summer saw the return of the successful Summer Play Scheme, with increased numbers participating and large volunteer group, with many members from the congregation, to operate and manage the scheme took place last year that proved very popular.
Application for funding has again been successful, with a grant being awarded from Southwark Council for a Summer Holiday Programme. Planning is already in place for this event lead by one of the Trustees, Sharon Baah. This will take place during the last week in July and the first week of August.
Enquiries have been made by a new group, essentially a Boxing Club, to use the Centre to set up facilities for young people, and references are being sought for consideration.
The weekend private hire bookings are now being managed by Praetorium, and the bookings have been gradually growing, which will assist in the recovery of the Centre income.

St .Faith’s Community & Youth Foundation 2022 AGM- Interim Chair Report
Staff, Trustees & Foundation Matters
During the period, a Community Outreach Worker, Miranda Okon, has joined the staff on a part time basis, shared with the role Young Persons Minister with the Church.
However, the post of caretaker vacated last year has not been filled, and is required as a matter of urgency.
Alex Bicknell, who is currently in the post of Centre Manager, had to take long term leave since 27[th] April due to planned treatment, and has only recently returned on restricted duties until full recovery. In the meantime, the duties are being covered by some members of the Trustees.
The turn of the year saw the retirement of the Chair of the Board of Trustees, Revd. Susan Height. Susan joined the Management Committee, as it was known then, soon after her arrival at St Faith’s over 10 years ago, and has been in the position of Chair for the past 7 years, and was instrumental in the transition from Association to Foundation with the establishment of a Board of Trustees, rather than a Management Committee, enabling the extension of remit and flexibility. Opportunity is taken here to thank Susan for her leadership and many tears of hard work.
Following the agreement between the Board of Trustees and the PCC the Centre has been paying a monthly rent of £500.00 since September 2021.
In compliance with the ever increasing statutory demand made on public bodies, a User Group Governance Policy has been developed, and during the earlier part of the year, Alex was busy contacting the various user groups to collet the necessary governance information.
Premises & Upkeep
During the period, a BMS (Building Management System) has been installed to improve the control and monitoring of the heating system and flexibility of use.
An access control system has also been installed to improve security and to allow users more flexibility to use the building securely when there are no members of staff on site.
The IT system has also been upgraded with the installation of WiFi.
