Achievements and Performance

| 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 centre is a community hub accessible to all. In the past (pre covid) we have had many different events and groups that encouraged lots of different people to attend the centre. This creates a sense of well being and inclusivity within our_community._ Our quarterly village magazine (produced and delivered to every home by volunteers) makes sure that all members of our village are kept up to date with village news. |

Financial Review
| Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period |
Para 1.21 | Well we made it past our possibly worst Financial Year ever on record – which could have been much worse were it not for the Grants we received from PCC. Again this month they came up trumps with another grant successfully gained by our office administrator of £10,240.93p This has set us up well for the start of this financial year, and along with carefully monitoring our staff's time during the coming months with just a few of our regulars returning hopefully we will pull through. We are also trying to control our Gas, Electric and Water Expenses by sending regular readings to our suppliers, which we have always done, but by monitoring them also on a spreadsheet we can see immediately when a problem occurs and this is how we picked up the toilet problem with one of the flushers, and managed to get it repaired very quickly. Our balance going forward to May is £8,271.88p so hopefully our 1stQuarter Figures will be interesting. |
|---|---|---|
| Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held |
Para 1.22 | A reserve is kept in a high interest savings account in case of emergency repairs or if new equipment is needed. We are also undergoing a community asset transfer and our outgoings will be significantly higher once this has been completed. |
