Any new trustee will be asked to confirm that they have read the Charity Commissions guidance on becoming a trustee. They will be given a copy of the latest accounts, meeting minutes and policies such as safeguarding, data protection and health and safety.

The trustees have considered and keep a watching brief on the charity’s activities so that potential risks can be assessed and addressed. During 2020 the activities were primarily through the zoom application so a risk assessment was conducted to ensure that attendees could be as protected as possible with the group online activity.

As activities change and adapt new risk assessments will be conducted and reviewed.

Due to evidence of being able to deliver activities that encouraged community interaction and created a sense of well -being during the pandemic In A Space has been awarded a grant through the Dulverton Trust through the Kent Community Foundation to encourage older members of the community to take part in group activities. Three projects will be delivered two of them in collaboration with a group set up to combat feelings of isolation from April 2021 to October 2021.These projects will create paid opportunities for local artists/ teachers, admin assistance and will hopefully benefit circa 50 members of the public.
