ensuring we meet the Community's needs
and wishes.| ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |Achievements against

Once the build is completed (expected to
take 2-years+), there will then be an
ongoing risk to manage, balancing regular
income from the facility to pay its
overheads and invest in its growth.| ## **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: |The charity’s principal

achieving the build of a new community

As we move into the detailed design and
build phase of the project, so related
policies will be established and formalised.| |---|---|---| |A description of the principal
risks facing the charity|Para 1.46|**1. Planning:**
We are confident that planning will be
approved, however, there is a risk that we
may not be able to:
a. Secure approval for the build
b. Achieve the design required to
conduct planned activities.
**2. Community:**
Whilst we have a quorate and active
committee there is a risk that we may not
be able to:
a. Generate interest locally and
beyond
b. Maintain support for the LPCT
and its purpose
**3. Affordability:**
Although we have been pledged £100,000
towards costs there is a risk that we will not
be able to:
a. Generate sufficient funds for the
design and build of the facility.
b. Generate sufficient income to
cover operating costs.
c. Raise funds to give back to the
Community via trust objects.| |Other||| ## **Structure, Governance and Management** |Description of charity’s
