The Charity has taken account of the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. In this regard the Charity is wholly committed to raising funds for the improvement of facilities in Lyme Green Community Park, any member of the public can access the park, free of charge and use any of the facilities provided. Since forming as a Charity CIO in October 2019, Park 4all Lyme Green has successfully raised funds with the following organisations:  National Lottery Community Fund  Sport England  Cheshire East Council  Sutton Parish Council  New Homes Bonus Fund  Hobson Charity  Together with donations from local businesses 

**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)** 

The funds raised have been donated from the Charity to Cheshire East Council (CEC) who own Lyme Green Community Park.  Ansa Environmental Services Ltd (ANSA), the operational arm of CEC manages the Lyme Green Park on behalf of CEC.  ANSA have designed the park and are solely responsible for maintaining and installing the new equipment. They have used these funds to completely revitalise the area by installing a new path, improved drainage, wildlife area, sports equipment all ages and abilities and includes equipment for people with physical and sensory impairments, children’s play equipment, sensory garden, reading library, assessable raised beds, play trail, picnic tables, some with game tops and seating. By the Charity donating all the equipment to CEC it ensures that CEC are responsible for the ongoing maintenance, insurance and safety of the equipment, the public thus benefiting from being able to use any of the facilities 

The Charity have also received smaller donations from the community and also held and number of fundraising initiatives in the community to raise the awareness of the park which have aided the administration of the group such as running the website and paying for the insurance. The accounts reflect the monies received direct by the Charity from some grant providers, donations from the public and local businesses and community fund raising activities.  The Charity has a partnership agreement with CEC and Ansa and under this partnership agreement some grants have been applied for in the name of CEC, with the monies being paid direct to CEC and used for the purpose of the grant application.  A project management fee payable to Ansa has been incorporated in all of the grant applications to ensure transparency and the work being carried out to meet the grant providers terms and conditions.
