ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
I think we can safely say that life is never boring at the Acorn Centre! It has been filled with moments of fun, laughter, tears, challenge, pain, frustration, inspiration and a deep, deep sense through it all that we are not alone, we have each other’s backs. Our doors are never closed, there is always space to welcome another friend into our Acorn community. The peoples shed is up and running, what an amazing place. Somewhere to build friendships while you learn the craft of wood turning and carpentry. The team here are constantly looking at how this area can be developed to include more men, woman, children and youth. At present it is open one day a week with some shorter sessions on other days.
The gardens both front and back are looking good. The extension build altered the garden space significantly and led to it being carefully re-developed. Members of the community have been involved in building raised flower beds and creating an outdoor meeting space. We have harvested many vegetables and herbs this year. Forest school is thriving. Simon has completed his training and so can run forest school independently from Lily. Both are running sessions in the local schools as well as at the lake. They have run adult sessions more recently in the gardens. This is a powerful tool in supporting children and young people who struggle more in the class room. The school sessions bring in some finance helping to make this work financially sustainable.Wellbeing worker. After many years of campaigning to get consistent support for those struggling with their mental health we have arrived at the point of being able to employ a wellbeing worker giving free and easily accessible help. This has involved raising funds and making savings where possible. The advert is being created and interviews considered. Watch this space.
During the winter months we developed the ‘Warmer spaces’. Some where to be warm, see friends and have a bite to eat. Thanks to Steve for making this happen. Summer holidays. We have partnered with the wonderful Y services providing holiday activities for all ages. Working together has enabled us to offer so much more to our children and youth. We have provided free lunches to all school ages. Our young leaders aged 10 to 16 continue to amaze us as they arrive every week to help plan and set up the youth café. They have helped with Christmas parties, easter events and holiday activities.
Last year at the AGM we put out a request for helpers to run ‘Little Acorns’ toddler group. Ellen and Claire took up this challenge and have been faithfully supporting our toddlers. They are beautiful ladies! Budgeting money courses continue to run and we have made contact with a debt advice team who are willing to support in this. Challenges around finance continue. HCC no longer offer any funding toward our core costs and bills are ever increasing. We are always looking for appropriate funders to help us continue the work we do.
Billys lake is looking stunning, if you haven’t visited yet then this is the year! The team of volunteers who maintain and develop the area are doing a fantastic job. Lunch club is a must if you are free on a Monday. Everyone gets such a warm welcome and finds themselves amongst friends.
We have the most inspirational team of people, both paid and voluntary. We cannot begin to express our thanks to you all. You make this place what it is!!!!

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Liza Minnelli, in the famous 1966 film "Cabaret", sang: “Money makes the world go round, the world go round, the world go round, Money makes the world go round, That clinking clanking sound!”
I would add that the bearings that it pivots on are love and kindness. As we look at the operation of the Acorn Centre and its peripheral activities, money is indeed essential for us to keep going but that it is love and kindness that allow us to spin freely and not lose our purpose and direction.
On the positive side:
-
We now have the Acorn People’s Shed up and running, having applied for various grants and used some of our savings, and bringing a lot of benefit to many people.
-
We now have a Mental Health worker, where last year a bunch of us were just recovering from the Great South Run, raising money for that project and Aaron has now run two successful golfing fundraising days.
-
As Forest Schools have developed we have now been able to extend our coverage and bring more finance into that part of our operation.
-
Keith and the kitchen team are now regularly breaking even. What started as a service to the community, both through food provided and training offered with the centre paying the chef’s wage is now covering the chef’s wage.
Sadly, we have, during this year, lost a regular £1000 a month grant from Hampshire County towards the running of this Community Centre. In fairness, they had started to reduce the number of centres they supported and we were one of the last to lose that grant. It does however mean that we need to keep looking for ways to bring money into the centre to keep the lights burning and the heating on. As always, I would also like to thank the organisations that enable the operation and activities at the Acorn Centre - for Havant Borough Council for allowing us to use this amazing building, and for grants from the Tudor Trust, Henry Smith Foundation, Communities First, Garfield Weston, ASDA, Beacon Church, WeBigLocal and the Hampshire and Isle of Wight Community Fund. These grants enable us to employ our Conservation Officer and Community Development Worker and carry out many of the other smaller projects, each one of which enables us to help Wecock Farm become a better place to live.
We also thank all those who regularly hire the facilities at the Centre; Squirrels, WeBigLocal, Hannah’s Holiday Home, the U3A Bridge Club, Home Start, Hearing Clinic and the NHS Diabetic eye clinic. Thanks also to Tesco for their regular food donations, One Stop and ASDA for their Donations. The Centre always needs to find other ways to boost our income. Some of the ways that this is achieved are through the Aviary Cafe, Launderette, Charity Shop, and the selling of drinks and snacks alongside the cafe.
Moving forward into the new financial year, the challenge as always remains to find new funding streams. This will on the one hand provide continuity as one grant comes to an end and on the other hand allows scope for new activities and services to help enhance life for those in our community. If anyone reading this enjoys the challenge of writing funding bids, please get in touch. I do mention this every year and am still waiting patiently for someone to come forward! This is an amazing community. Thank you to all who contribute time or charity shop goods and who purchase items from the Charity Shop and Aviary Cafe.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed trust, and constitutes an unincorporated charity.
The Board regularly reviews the skills and experience required to operate efficiently and effectively and has put in place a process for the recruitment of additional trustees.
