The directors present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the company for the period ended 31 March 2022
## **Principal activities**
The principal activity of the company during the year was the promotion of religious , cultural, and arts activities
## **Objectives and activities**
Our mission statement is "To promote understanding through personal experience"
We exist to promote understanding between different communities by celebrating and raising awareness of their faith and cultural heritage. As part of our activities we work closely with many different communities, faith organisations and places of worship as well as representatives of secular organisations; however the Open Centre is not a religiously based organisation and has no affiliation to any specific faith based groups.
We work towards the elimination of racist or discriminatory behaviours towards members of the community on grounds of colour, race, nationality, ethnic or national origins and to promote equality of opportunity and good relations between persons of different racial groups.
Objectives carried out through activities such as; facilitating faith trails to places of worship with children, young people and adults, visits/assemblies to places of education, faith days, workshops in schools and the wider community and the deployment of mobile exhibitions.
## **Achievements and performance**
The Open Centre made a strong recovery from COVID in the school year starting in September 2021 building on historical connections and new ways of working. The expectation is that the on-line offer will give additional opportunities for the future.
Full return to a monthly surplus started after the end of the financial year which reassures the Trustees that the charity is financially sustainable for the long term.
