Achievements and Performance
SORP reference
| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | In this reporting period, the charity has delivered all of the programme of services and activities that we committed to the Charity Commission upon registration, plus more, despite only re-opening in May 2024 and we are achieving the benefits associated with each activity (*please see chart included). Every Cloud stands for, and offers, “ Support, Nature, Understanding, Creativity and Hope” Feed back in June this year from 4 beneficiaries of the art group_. “A positive group with so many benefits. I have been_ able to socialise, make friends and explore craft ideas that have been great for my mental health. “I look forward to every session”. “Good to talk”. “Relaxing and therapeutic”. An individual case study: a troubled, silent and reticent lady in her 40,s whose breakdown initially at work had lasted for 9 years was referred to Every Cloud. She is now our week-end café manager, responsible for the volunteer rota each week-end, for purchasing, for managing the technology, responsible for the presentation of the barn café and arranges our Art Exhibitions. She is by far the most popular and successful artist with the public and she is confident, wise and a great mentor for younger people. Her mother has thanked us for “saving her daughter’s life” Engaging the wider community in our public activities - our art &craft workshops, nature walks and meditation sessions, community art and nature trails for families, and individuals enjoyment in the tranquillity of our garden and park as a whole - is helping people to overcome anxiety, depression and stress and feel less isolated to protect their mental health as well as improve it.. |

| Financial Review | |||||
| Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period |
Para 1.21 | In April 2024 our bank balance was at its lowest point at £2,500 because of the works needed to move from the (condemned) Farmhouse into the Barn and to convert it so as to be suitable for running all of our activities from here. We were successful in applying for 2 local grants and an Awards for All grant. We are now able to cover our core costs but to continue developing our services we will need to fundraise externally. Our bank balance at end of period of £27,000 includes some underspend of grants and some outstanding utilities costs (waiting on council who we give our quarterly sub meter readings to). The Trustees consider we are financially sustainable again. |
