Main Activities – Achievements and Performance
To date -The Bolton Woods centre has not had a full year of independent trading, previous activity has been under the guide and support of Play Bradford. As the charity builds independency. We are now entering a full first year of trading, The Bolton Woods Centre bank account opened with Unity Trust February 2023.
During the seven-month period, the charity is working hard to connect with local services, consult with the local community and establish a firm footing, to enable ongoing services to be delivered. The centre has to date built relationships with other local organisations to help with project delivery as appropriate. This has been an important process as the charity rebuilds community confidence. Current centre activity has been to provide a warm space to engage with residents, regular youth and play sessions to connect with young people and working towards developing services for the elderly. The charity recognises the challenges, when reopening a dormant space, rising issues connected with adult and child mental health is on the increase, anti-social behaviours are prevalent as well as other critical issues affecting the health of this community.
In response, the charity will over the forthcoming 12 months, develop a business plan, involve the community via consultation and drop-ins and empower the neighbourhood to be an integral partner in shaping the centre for the future.
The charity does not own any assets, we have secured a temporary 2- year lease agreement with Bradford Council, which is being renegotiated to enable the charity to grow.
