Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
DECLARATION: To advance the education of children and autistic children up to the age of seven. To enhance speech, language attainment and global development through engagement through the arts in all it’s forms To relieve the needs of autistic children and their families by providing activities for parents and carers and the opportunity to engage in the arts in all it’s forms which they may not otherwise have access to.
To advance the education of children and autistic children up to the age of seven. To enhance speech, language attainment and global development through engagement through the arts in all it’s forms We have been focussing on building relationships. We have worked with: Bromley Mencap Bromley Children’s Services Bromley Young Carers Bromley Autism Beyond Various individuals Activites include offering provision to families with autistic children in our venue, where families can meet, swap information and get relevant support, as well as experience tailored provision for the children: this is a service that is lacking in the area, both in terms of contact, and space to run activities, meeting our public benefit to provide for families and offer attainment raising arts activities. We have also been consulting with children’s services on how the charity might bridge the gap between what is currently offered by the council and what is needed for early years in the community. From this consultation, a clearer roadmap has been made for fundraising: in this way we can offer a service to provide attainment boosting arts that otherwise would be absent to their clients. Lastly, we have opened up the building to small SMEs and charities who have similar aims to strengthen relationships and aid the community.
