AGE CONCERN EASTLEIGH TRUSTEES, REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 {continued) The trustees present their report and unaudited accounts for the year ended 31 March 2024. Age Concern, Eastleigh is 8overned by the constitution adopted in 1956, amended throughout the years, with the latest amendment dated 28 October 1998. It was established as a charity on 21 January 1962. with the purpose of promoting the welfare of the aged in any manner which now 15, or hereafter, maybe deemed by law to be charitable within the North. South and East wards, and West ward South of Lelgh Road and East of Bournemouth Road. REVIEW OF THE YEAR Sadly our former Chair. Devan pa55ed away in May. Our deepest sympathies go to hls family. He will be greatly mi55ed, and the Trustees will do all they can to continue hi5 le8acy at Age Concern Eastlelgh. In Devan's honour the hall will be named the Oevan Kandiah Hall and a plaque will be presented to his family at the AGM. Our misslon statement is a well-rehearsed document. We are mindful to achieve a financial balance each year to ensure a stable existence for many year5 to come. The last year has been spent beddlng Into our new premises, which ha5 been a mainly positive experSence but with some exception5. The air conditionin8 in the kltchen had control problems which meant that cold air was belng supplied, thls used slgnificant amounts of electricity, the cost of which we have had to cover. The problem ha5 now been 501ved but E8C were slow to respond and this matter remalns outstanding. The gas supply to the kitchen remained unconnected until October 2023, again E8C had been slow to respond. EBC have not yet Issued us wlth the lease of the building, thls Issue remains outStandln& and we will be taklng this up wlth them in a joint approach with One Communitv. There are a range of activities taking place In the hall every day except Friday. They continue to prove popular but can only continue if sufficlent member5 are able to take part. Unfortunately, the Table Tennis club has recently and reluctantly decided to close following a fall in the number of participants. Efforts were made durlng the year to reinstate the Lunch Club. However the problems wlth the kitchen and lack of volunteers made thi5 impossible. Efforts will continue in the coming year to try and reintroduce this valuable service. We were unable to organise an outing this year. Some suggestions had been made for a visit but none were considered suitable. The main criteria are.. the outin8 needs to be confined to an afternoon: it should include afternoon tea,. sufficient volunteers are available to organise and lead, and, the 5ubsldy provlded by ACE must sit comfortably within our re50urcÈs. Activities only happen as a result of the hard work and dedication of the activity leaders and the Trustees express their thanks to all of them. Advice and Guidance on a variety of matters continues to play an important role in the services offered by ACE. The Trustees would like to record thelr thanks to our volunteers Jackie and Maggie for all their efforts in Advice and Guidance as well as for their contribution to the running of the office. Our secretary Ursula has continued to provide a sterlin8 service to the Trustees and to the management of the office in general. Jean stepped in to help out with financial control but has also been able provide us Wlth significant advice on how to take the Charity forward. Our thanks to lean and Ur5uIa.
