**Afan Community Fitness Suite** 

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Charity Objectives** 

- a) To promote for the benefit of the inhabitants of the Afan valley and the surrounding area the provision of facilities for recreation or other leisure time occupation of individuals who have need of such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or, financial hardship or social and economic circumstances or for the public at large in the interests of social welfare and with the object of improving the conditions of life of the said inhabitants; 

- b) the promotion of community participation in healthy recreation by the provision of a community gym 

## **Values** 

Public service, leadership, selflessness, integrity, objectivity, honesty, and accountability. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Activities** 

Our Fitness Suite was based in the former swimming pool at Cymer Afan Comprehensive school which we shared usage with the school. However due to the recent school closure, we had no option other than to re-locate the fitness suite to Cymer Sports hall. We have recently signed a 25 year lease with NPTCBC so we can continue to deliver recreational and physical activities, plus improve the health and well- being of the people of the Afan Valley in a fit for purpose building 

We have divided the sports hall in two halves; where one half is a fitness suite and the other half is used for groups to hire. 

Our main objective is to enhance the quality of life by providing all with opportunity to improve their physical wellbeing which in turn improves the overall mental and emotional wellbeing, which can have a detrimental impact to ones quality of life. 

Unfortunately in March of 2020 we were mandated to close in line with Government Covid 19 rulings. We opened back up with limited use in August of 2020 but were once again forced into closure in December of 2020. 

In November of 2020, we were very fortunate to be awarded the existing gym equipment from the Ford Plant in Bridgend (which was being decommissioned). This allowed us to extend the size of the Fitness Suite and enable the necessary social distancing requirements to be met without reducing capacity. 



## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Reserves policy** 

It is the policy of the organisation to maintain unrestricted and designated funds to ensure sufficient reserves to meet six months running costs. However in the event of periods of difficult trading this continues to be no longer achievable. 

## **FUTURE PLANS** 

The organisation seeks to maintain its community based regeneration activities based on its capacity for income generation. We are looking at expanding on current provision and increase opportunities for new and existing members. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The organisation is a registered charity incorporated on 21 November 2019. Our governing document is Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) established on the 28[th] May 2019. 

## **Organisational structure** 

Afan Community Fitness Suite has a board of trustees which meets on a regular basis, a minimum of 6 times a year and are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. At the year end, the Board has 4 trustees. The trustees represent a number of residents and community interests as well those with business and professional backgrounds.
