Trustees’ Annual Report - 1st August 2024 31st July 2025
INTRODUCTION
Our Burgess Hill Creative Community has had a very successful 2nd year. We have grown our memberships and also our user groups. As we enter into our 3rd year, this will be a period of change, as we begin our search for a permanent home for BHCC. We will be locating to temporary premises shortly, which will be a great deal smaller than we are used to, but which will serve adequately as a short-term step on our way to establishing our long-term future. The BHCC Trustees are focussed on finding permanent premises which meet all the charity’s needs, both for the benefit of its members and for the future of Burgess Hill.
The Trustees of BHCC are happy to be in a position to be able to hold our 2[nd ] AGM for the charity on September 20[th] , 2025. We here provide our 2[nd ] Trustee Annual Report, together with the consolidated financial statements of the charity for the year ending 31 July 2025.
GOVERNANCE / TRUSTEES
At our 1st AGM in 2024, all serving Trustees were required by our constitution to stand for re-election for a three-year term by majority vote. As this was done, those trustees will now be in place until the 2027 AGM; other resignations and reappointments will be dealt with by the Trustees on an ad hoc basis as they arise in the interim period.
We have had some changes to our Charity Team in this last year, with three trustees leaving due to other commitments, and one changing to a non-trustee role. Two new trustees were appointed, and two members took on new nontrustee roles.
- Peter Crabtree was appointed as Treasurer in November 2024

AIMS AND ACTIVITIES
A reminder of the aims of our Charity
‘ To further or benefit the inhabitants of Burgess Hill and the surrounding area, without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other opinions by inclusion for the public benefit by preventing people from becoming socially excluded, relieving the needs of those people who are socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society through the provision of facilities in which they can meet jointly or individually to undertake creative and craft activities, learn or pass on skills and knowledge and support each other socially. ’
Burgess Hill Creative Community Trustees’ Annual Report Aug 24 - July 25.
Pg 2
The Charity has provided activities at our current base of the Kiln, Burgess Hill, throughout 2024-25. BHCC also runs, and assists at, low-cost or free craftbased activities held by other local charities and groups.
CREATIVE SESSIONS IN 2024-25
BHCC offered a variety of sessions in its 2nd year, and introduced two new crafts:
-
Art / Art Appreciation
-
Craft
-
Dollhouse miniature making (NEW)
-
French
-
Pottery
-
Rag Rugging (NEW)
-
Sewing
-
Weaving
With our move to new premises in autumn 2025, we will continue with our ambition to offer more sessions and introduce new crafts wherever possible, to expand the range of sessions and topics on offer to our members. We will also seek to introduce one-off sessions where members can try specialist techniques, or non-members can join for day or half-day ‘tasters’, by paying an appropriate fee. This will be reliant on available space/time and on volunteer availability to run these sessions.
EVENTS IN 2024-25
In addition to regular crafts sessions, BHCC also took part in ad hoc events. During 2024-25, these were:
-
Members Art Exhibition – August 2024
-
MacMillan Coffee Morning September 2024
-
Quiz Night, where 50+ members attended - October 2024
-
Science Fair with BHTC & Richard Robinson - October 2024

ACHIEVEMENTS
Our biggest achievement this year has been pursuing and managing to secure a 2 year lease for our community space. This will enable us more time in securing a long-term home for the charity. The trustees strongly believe in the importance of BHCC’s presence in Burgess Hill, and we will strive to continue to run our charity in this location in a sustainable way.
We have worked hard to get to where we are today and - with the support of our Landlords, NewRiver Reit - we have managed to grow our community members. We have built good relationships with our Town Council, our local MP, other local community organisations and have created a greater awareness of what we do.
We made our first ‘explainer’ video in July 2025 which really reflects the importance of our organisation to our members. We collected testimonials from our members which was very uplifting to read. Our video can be seen on YouTube here! Burgess Hill Creative Community

GRANTS
We have not applied for or received any grants in this financial year. It is our aim for Year 3 to work towards applying for relevant grants that will help us work towards establishing the charity in a long-term location..

We have trained a further 7 new first-aiders within our membership, renewed 3 and offered 2 spaces to a local organisation, Summerhaven Adult Mental Health Group. This helps us to maintain adequate cover at all our sessions; in total, we now have 18 first aiders within the membership.

Paul Dobie & Martyn Homan, Health & Safety Officers.
SAFEGUARDING
There have been no significant safeguarding issues during Yr 2. Trustee Stephanie Goldfinch has reviewed BHCC’s Safeguarding policy since taking on the role to ensure it is appropriate and up-to-date. It is important that all members are aware of this policy and that they are able to raise any concerns they may have with Stephanie in confidence. This policy can be found on our website, at www.bhcreativecommunity.co.uk or on request. We can either send a copy by email, or print a copy.
We have also continued our practice of changing our door access and computer user codes on a regular basis, and whilst we know this can be challenging for members, it is important that these codes are not written down or displayed anywhere they may be visible to visitors or passers-by.
