Achievements and Performance
SORP reference
The charity, through the trustees, has run the
Community Centre for the benefit of local
residents. By providing facilities for sporting
and fitness groups local people can meet
socially, improving both their physical and
mental well-being.
The provision of space for a local pre-school
means local parents do not have to travel to
access such a service,
Young people from toddler age upwards can
make use of the field and play area.
The Community Centre has also provided a
venue for holiday clubs and the local
horticultural club during school holidays.
These activities effectively offer a wide age
group a means of socialisation and physical
improvement.
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.

Financial Review
Review of the charity's
financial position at the end
of the period
Para 1.21
Income received from rental was sufficient to
cover expenditure, however the steep increase
in power and water costs over the last 12
months has reduced the monthly surplus by
50 % . This is being monitored by the
mana
ement committee on a re
ular basis.
The trustees have reviewed the reserves of the
charity. Their policy is to hold sufficient funds to
meet four months of operating costs plus floor
renovation costs. To meet this figure the
amount of reserves needs to be increased by
approximately £5000, a sum which the trustees
have agreed should be transferred from the
current account to the reserves account.
