Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document

March 2012

We provide a safe and secure facility for our local community to use as they may require. We have utilised the former classrooms as private office/work rooms for local business people in order to provide a secure income which is to be used for the maintenance, insurance and general costs of the Trusts (as authorised by the Trustees) and have a local family in residence at the School House (the tenant is a school teacher at another local primary school). This enables the Trust to be financially sustainable.

We are able to offer educational (academic or vocational) support and provide a safe place for other activities for our community as they may wish.

Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

We have been able to engage with our local community members through and since the Covid-19 pandemic by providing a food takeaway service once a fortnight whilst reviewing the needs of our locality including when restrictions have been eased, which allowed us to offer help and care and to be of service where required.

We have provided a safe place for local business owners to continue their work whilst working within the Government Coronavirus guidelines. As and when they need to work online we have full access to the B4RN ultra-high speed fibre optic network to enable people of any age to access the internet which not all domestic residences have the capability to do.

We are happy to host Rathmell Young Farmers Club and they have regularly used the school for their club meetings. A small number of local children have used the quiet spaces for educational support in preparation for the GCSE exams. Other local children have been able to play and cycle safely within the confines of the playground area and this has helped them and their parents with their own physical and mental health care.

We have hosted several first aid courses for local groups to help them care for the local community.

We aim to continue to offer support to our widespread, local community.
