In addition. specific members are nominated to be responsible for membership and publicity. Risk Management The Operations Committee has conducted a risk analysis to identify the major risks to which the charity is exposed. Where possible, arrangements have been put in place to reduce these risks and are reviewed annually. Training No specific training is given to Trustees. but each is provided with information produced by the Charity Commission outlining their responsibilities within the organisation.

Objectives and activlties In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities the Trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance 'public benefit. running a charity (PB2}'. The objectives of the Association are to promote the benefit and enhance the leisure of the inhabitants of Addlestone and the neighbourhood without distinction of gender, or of political, religious or other opinions by associating the local authorities. voluntary organisations and inhabitants in a common effort to advance education in the interests of social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation with the objective of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants. The strategies employed to achieve the Associations objectives are to: _ Provide first class facilities at an affordable cost for local groups and other charities as a meeting place to carry out their own specffic field of activities. Provide facilities to the local community as accommodation for family celebrations, parties and other personal activities. Encourage specific recreational interests by offering 'section membership. whereby those groups become part of the Association. The 'Sections' currently indude badminton, keep fft, drama. sequence dance and a camera club. Organise events covering Con￿rtS. outings and other events for the general public which also provides additional income towards the upkeep,,of the Centre. Achievements and perforniance Usage of the Centre has continued to gn)w during 2024125. The Addlestone Sequence Dance Club has been meeting every Monday for over sixty years, dancing tsvelve different Sequence Ballroom or Latin dances each week and at their popular Bank Holiday Tea Dances. In Sequence Dancing you have to leam and remember each dance and this weekly exercise is vital for residentslmembers to maintsin physical health, mental wellbeing and social contact. Membership has reduced since covid, and the average age of members is now in the late 70s. Tangent Badminton Club was fornied by and for players who no longer want to play at a serious or competitive level. but who want to stay fft, maintain Iheir skills and develop social relationships in the community. Its membership mainly comprises older players who no longer work and so have the time in the day to play but still want to play the game they love with others who also want a friendly. social experience in a relaxed atmosphere. Dauling Entertainment has continued to bring professional entertainment to the Centre. 2024125 saw some of the biggest shows yet. The events have offered diverse high-quality performances from live tribute shows to variety such as Drag shows and celebrity magicians. As a Centre we are able to support these events with our sound systems and stage design in the Tulk Hall. These events catalyse communty engagement, bringing families. friends and neighbours together. The economic impact is signrficant. drawing visitors and boosting local business. Looking ahead. the pathership promises greater gchievements.

Our Shed - Over the last three years the Shed has evolved from a run4own derelict workshop to a central hub within the centre. The Shed was resurrected in February 2022. It had lain dormant following the covid pandemic. The Shed is attended by young adults two days a week to teach basic woodworking and lrfe skills in a workshop that is a safe environment to improve social interaction and wellbeing. This is run as a non-profit making enterprise. These young adults make different items to sell at local craft fairs which are held in Surrey throughout the year. These items include garden planters, bird boxes, Halloween and Christmas decorations. The equipment and volunteers in the Shed also support the maintenance of the Centre. Other days the Shed equipment is there for the local community to use to repair or upcycle. Stonn Darragh had other plans for our Shed in early De￿mber 24, and we unfortunately lost the roof. We are pleased to report that we were able to use reserved funds to have the Shed roof replaced. Runnymede Borough Council have continued to support us throughout this financial year. They have hired rooms for Runnymede Borough Council elections and have supported us with grants to replace the flooring in one of our smaller rooms and gave us funds to purchase pickleball equipment which is being introduced as a regular class in 2025. The Centre continues to run Brass Band Con￿rtS and outings for the general public which helps to provide additional income for the Centre. These two areas are run by Emmie West and Rob Waters both of whom are lifelong volunteers. We are very grateful for the work that they do supporting the Centre. We held two Craft Fairs in 2024125. One in the Spring and one at Christmas. The Christmas Fair also had a raffle. All the prizes were donated by local businesses which raised £215 for Runnymede Foodbank. One of our Sections (Chertsey Camera Club) put on a beautiful display of photos taken by their members. These were much admired and has inspired new members to the dub. The Centre also supported a free Christmas Tea Party for fifty older residents. St Pauls Church Choir performed seasonal songs. there was also a Christmas themed quiz with prizes donated by local retailers as well. In January 2025 we took the plunge and introduced a new online booking system that also supports the preparation and issuing of monthly Invol￿S. We now have an IT Manager to support the Centre. He has supported the introduction of a new domain (addcc.org) for all the ACA Offi￿rS and has transitioned everyone away from the use of personal email accounts. He has recycled and or disposed of obsolete computers and transferred historical ACA data to cloud storage. He has upgraded some of the display computers in our foyer and windows that support advertising activities in the Centre. We have continued to support the Salvation Army by donating the Centre for their use on Christmas Eve and Christrnas day to make and serve meals for residents.

We must praise the continued support of all our volunteers. The Centre operates for seven days a week often for over twelve hours a day. We rely heavily on the support of our volunteers without whom this Centre would not be able to operate as it does. Our treasurer of 40 years resigned this year. Malcolm Smith has been a huge support to the Centre. There are not many roles that Malcolm hasn't tumed his hand to over the lifetime of the Chaiity, and he will be sorely missed. We wish him all the very best and hope he now gets a Chan￿ to tske life a bit easier. Plans for future periods Projects being considered are: Build on the use or our Shed Refurbishment of the Tulk Hall Continue to develop the Centre as a resource base fot meetings with the support of local community residents and organisations. Ultimately. we would seek to be seen as the recreational centre of the community of Addlestone offering help, support, activities and entertainment to all people living in the area. The fvndamental goal is to be a welcoming. safe. and friendly Centre. We already have fantastic facilities. and the plans will increase those to even higher stsndards. The change of name to The Addlestone Centre was a deliberate attempt to raise awareness of the Centre in the communty. As already stated. we are the Community Centre in the heart of the Community. We want to bring people together as a community in Addlestone., Independent Examiners A resolution was accepted at the Annual General Meeting that David Giltinan of John A. Hyde & Co. be appointed as Independent Examiner. By order of the trustees P Bungard (Chainnan)

All expenditure is included on an accruals basis and is recognised when there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment. it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
