| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | The community day centre offers numerous benefits for older individuals experiencing dementia, fostering a supportive environment that enhances their quality of life. Participants engage in tailored activities designed to stimulate cognitive function, improve social interaction, and reduce feelings of isolation. These activities not only aid in memory recall but also encourage meaningful connections with peers and caregivers. Additionally, the centre serves as a vital resource for family members, providing respite and support that ultimately contribute to a stronger, more resilient community. Such initiatives are essential for promoting well-being and dignity among those living with dementia. |

Financial Review
| Financial Review | ||
|---|---|---|
| Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period |
Para 1.21 | At the end of the year, the Havens Happy Clubs had total funds of £34,711, all of which are unrestricted and available to support our work. This includes £31,140 kindly received as a gift from an existing charity when the CIO was set up, along with a surplus of £3,571 generated during the year through our weekly dementia social club activities. Our income comes from families who pay for their loved ones to attend, some of whom receive local council support for vulnerable older people to help cover the cost. We did not receive any grants this year. Spending has been carefully managed to make the most of our resources, and the trustees are satisfied that the charity remains in a stable position. The funds we hold provide reassurance that we can continue offering weekly sessions and supporting our members in the year ahead. |
| Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held |
Para 1.22 | The trustees aim to hold enough reserves to ensure that the Havens Happy Clubs can continue even if there are unexpected changes in income or unforeseen expenses. Because our income comes from family fees and local council support, which can vary, holding reserves gives us confidence that we can keep running the club without disruption. We consider it prudent to keep reserves equivalent to around 3–6 months of running costs, covering things like venue hire, staff for sessions, and activities for our members. At the end of the year, our unrestricted reserves stood at £34,711, which the trustees feel is appropriate for a small charity in its first year of operation. We will continue to review this regularly to make sure we maintain enough to support the charity’s work safely. |
