APPENDIX 1 Achievements and performance Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the financial period We have continued with our outreach service to provide support to people in their own homes. We have an established Dementia Friendship group which meets each Wednesday moming We have continued to deliver a service of support to our Clients from Monday to Friday, for both those coming to visit the Day Centre and those who are unable or choose not to, by providing a hot 3 course home cooked lunch in a welcoming and friendly environment. We are also providing for those who need carer respite and meal provision at their own homes. We prepare our food from fresh ingredients serving a three course hot lunch from Monday to Friday cooked in our own kitchen. Our support throughout the year has enabled our Clients to remain independent for longer than would otheiSe be the case. We have operated a 9 seater mini bus for the last 2 years with a wheelchair tail lifl to assist in pick up and delivery of our clients enabling us to us to collect Clients from a wider area This has allowed us to continue to operate at full capacity. This gives us greater flexibility and we can also take Clients on local trips. Financial review Brief statement of the charity's policy on reserves The Trustees have chosen to retain a fund of £120K to enable the Charity to operate for a period should the main fund provider which is East Lothian Council be unable to continue to offer support. We have recently started a fund to allow us to replace our Day Centre bus which to replace would cosl £85K in due course We shall retain reserves as are thought fit to allow for financial stress to Lynton Day Centre as we are operating on a 6 year no cost increase contract with East Lothian Council Details of any deficit None Donated facilities and services (if any) Lynton Day Centre is able to operale in the caring and professional manner in which it does due to excellent staff but also due to a large group of around 30 volunteers. It is thanks to them that we have been able to provide the excellent care that we have maintained throughout this last year. They provide support serving lunches, general duties and interaction with the clients. They also provide support to staff for extemal activities and
