Tudor Community Sports Trust: Tudor Community Sports Ground, Tudor Road, Sutton Coldfield
Annual Report 1 December 2021 to 30 November 2022
1.0 Context
1.1 The global-wide Covid-19 pandemic which substantially affected every individual, household, business and charity functions at every scale continued to impact the charity in this financial year. The Trust’s compliance with UK Government restrictions continued to affect income generation, planned community events and Open Days.
1.2 However, the Trust’s operations slowly re-opened in April 2022 having been substantially limited in its activities during the preceding two financial years. Gradually, the Trust has reinstated essential facilities for existing players and has also managed to attract new players to its grounds.
2.0 Commonwealth Games Community Grant
2.1 The Trust was successful in obtaining a £8,766.92 Commonwealth Games Community Grant to launch its own “community sports countdown” to the Commonwealth Games 2022 being hosted by Birmingham. The Trust was able to deliver the grant-funded activities from April to September 2022 as follows:
-
Hosted a range of Open Days and local tournaments. Such events aided our own fundraising, engaged with wider residents and citizens and resulted in greater physical activities by more people
-
Implemented a capital investment plan to continue bringing the crown green up to the best high-quality with a standard Four-Season treatment
-
created information and promotional leaflets with decorative bunting/banners for the site
-
opurchase of smaller sized, specialist crown green bowls sets to encourage greater involvement of women and young people
3.0 Development Work
3.1 Development work to convert the planning permission into a phased delivery plan continued behind the scenes. The impact of soaring costs and prices caused by the aftermath of the Covid 19 pandemic, Ukraine War and UK cost of living crisis resulted in Trustees having to source a complete new round of new quotes from all specialist services.
3.2 The outcome is that the estimated costs of implementing the full scheme have doubled in price. A third round of sourcing estimates was due to start at the end of this financial year to try and obtain more competitive prices. This will establish concrete figures with which to apply for major grant funding as well as indicate a programme of phased works in line with funds obtained.
3.3 Open Days were successful in raising the Trust’s profile as well as engaging the wider community and demonstrating the opportunities to individual healthy lifestyles, improved mental and physical well-being and overcoming social isolation
3.4 Trustees worked on re-setting the business plan, community engagement and fundraising strategy while updating its website and promotional material for delivery to local households and use on social media platforms to raise people’s awareness.

4.0 Summary
4.1 The Trust intends to continue building on its existing cohort of willing volunteers, residents, local communities of interests and players. By constantly broadening and deepening the engagement of local people, diverse communities and other stakeholders across North Birmingham, the Trust will be able to shape and develop the use of its these community-based facilities more effectively.
4.2 The Trust will structure a volunteer programme to recruit more citizens and manage them effectively to support the Trust, individually and collectively. By working together, sharing our skills and contacts while maximising donation and grant opportunities, the tennis, netball and bowling green site will have a much more secure future serving its local communities.
