## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the period** **From 01/04/2024 Period start date To 31/03/2025 Period end date** **Charity name:** Park 4 all @ Lyme Green CIO **Charity registration number:** 1186038 ## **Objectives and Activities** ||SORP reference|| |---|---|---| |Summary of the purposes of
the charity as set out in its
governing document|Para 1.17|The aim of the Charity is to raise funds to
upgrade and improve the facilities at the park on
Robin Lane, Lyme Green, Macclesfield, which is
known as Lyme Green Community Park and
revitalise the space for all the local Community
to use. We would like the Lyme Green park area
to become a focal point of our community and
make it accessible to all, by creating a
multigenerational playground and communal
area. We strongly believe that upgrading the
playground and communal area will make a
significant contribution to our community as
well as improving the health and well-being of
people of all ages from within our local
communityarea.| |Summary of the main
activities in relation to those
purposes for the public
benefit, in particular, the
activities, projects or services
identified in the accounts.|**Para 1.17 and**
**1.19**|In 2023/24 we identified that the gardening
group shed was not robust enough and required
replacing, this has been effected in the current
year of 2024/25 with the addition of a mains
water supply.
The perimeter path remains not fully accessible,
however, attempts to have this rectified have
proved unsuccessful due to the lack of funds
available within Cheshire East Council whose
staff installed the path. There will be fund’s
available from a nearby housing development
under 106 provisions, however, we will not have
this available to us until 2027.
We have continued to hold community events in
the park, with a successful ‘Nature Day, for
young children with their parents and a ‘Doggie
day’ for dogs and their owners.| |Statement confirming
whether the trustees have
had regard to the guidance
issued by the Charity
Commission on public|Para 1.18|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 CommunityPark,anymember of the| ## benefit 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 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. The Charity was limited to eight trustees, in order to share the workload and widen the expertise permission was obtained to increase the trustee number to 12, this full complement was then appointed, The trustees are supported by a number of volunteers, all give their time free of charge to the Charity for the benefit of the Charities aims and the public who will use the facilities at Lyme Green Community Park. No trustee or volunteer receives any personal benefit from the activities undertaken by the Charity. The length of time trustees could serve was originally five years and may not have been reappointed until after an interval of two years, this has now been adjusted by deletion of _‘A charity trustee who has served for five years may not be reappointed until after an interval of a least two years’._ This change was necessary in order to retain certain personnel who were vital to the month to month running of the charity and not easily replaceable during this current year or foreseeable coming years. Some of the trustees have moved on with others taking their place. This brings fresh ideas to the charity with additional skill sets. ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: ||SORP reference|| |---|---|---| |Policy on grant making|Para 1.38|The CIO has no policy on grant making.| |Policy on social investment
