Objectives and Activities
To further or benefit the residents of Caddington and the neighbourhood and to provide facilities in the interest of social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation.
To establish or secure the establishment of a Community Centre and to maintain or manage or cooperate with any statutory authority in the maintenance and management of such a centre.
The Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit.
Achievements and Performance
Throughout the period, the Community Centre has been open for the residents of Caddington and the neighbourhood. On average, there has been over 500 residents a week using the Centre.
Financial Review
The Charity’s financial position at the end of the period is deemed to be satisfactory for its purposes.
The Trustees consider that a reasonable level of reserves should held, so that funds are available if there is a significant cost required for a one-off significant repair/maintenance. The desired minimum amount of reserves to cover these costs at the period end is £3,000.
The Building and Land are currently owned by Central Bedfordshire Council, who are at present considering refurbishing the Building and the utilisation of the Site, which may impact upon the Charity’s ability to continue to provide a Community Centre.
