Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main Viva Gymnastics Club faced significant challenges during the financial achievements of the charity year 2020-21 due to the COVID-19 global pandemic. Unable to hold any during the year face-to-face gymnastics classes during the lockdowns of 2020 and 2021, as well as during periods when government-issued guidance advised against gathering indoors for leisure purposes, the charity faced losing its income and being unable to pay the ongoing costs that still required payment during that period, such as club and coach insurances, coaching costs, safeguarding checks, system fees and banking charges, etc. Those children and adults that had attended the charity’s gymnastics classes faced losing the valuable physical, mental and social benefits of exercise, interaction and skill-building.

The charity implemented a programme of video classes for not just the gymnasts but also for their family members, to enable gymnasts and their families to interact with each other for social interaction, physical exercise and access to online learning content. The club’s coaches dedicated many hours each day to running the video classes, including running challenges and competitions with the aim of helping gymnasts to retain and improve their skills.

Once face-to-face outdoor gatherings were allowed, the charity moved its classes temporarily to an area of local green space in Portsmouth and from there continued to provide its gymnasts with the physical, mental and social benefits of gymnastics and outdoor exercise.

Section E Financial review

The charity purchases new gymnastics equipment so that all gymnasts can access equipment and learn skills, including those gymnasts with physical disabilities and additional needs. For example, soft play and sensory equipment is purchased for those gymnasts with sensory needs, whilst accessibility aids are purchased to make the gymnastics equipment accessible to those gymnasts with physical disabilities.
