OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Significant activitles
This year has been particularly difficult due to the cost-of-living crisis which has impacted on the community
ntre as 8 whole. We have worked hard on implementing new ideas and pushing membership.
We have a large Facebook following which helps keep the community up to date on what is going on.
We also have a website where people can see what the upcoming events are. There is also a function to
check the availability of the hall and altemative available spaces to hire. Booking of these spaces is
facilitated via the website therefore reducing the risk of double-booking.
The cafe has now closed as it was not economically feasible to conts.nue to provide the service.
We have purchased 15 mew tsbles and 20 more chairs so that the community centre can accommodate 100
guests to sit down at functions.
New play equipment has been purchased and installed. A safety inspection has been carried out and the
equipment has passed this requirement
We have sourced new cleaning materials from a new supplier which should lead to efficiencies and cost
saving.
A new youth club has started up providing a safe Spa￿ for the young people of the community.
We have plans for the following events in the near future".
- community BBQ
- family open day
- Halloween paty
children's christmas paty
Our events prove popular with the community who turn out to use the Jackmans Community Centre.
We have also intrOdU￿d a junior membership for 14-18 year olds.
We 8re also looking closely into cost-saving opportunitES for example sourcing cleaning materials from a new
supplier which should provide us with significant reduction in costs.
We have held multiple events including..
Children's Christmas Paty
Farnily Fun Days
Easter Celebration
Community Barbecues
Halloween paty
Our events prove popular with the community who tum out and use the Jackmans Community Centre.

meetings.
