Lighting up of tree at the end of North Seton Park in conjunction with the Cod Heids
(a group of local individuals who ran the 2024 Edinburgh marathon) and community
council. This was in replacement of a tree at the centre due to cost.
The Management Committee continued to run a variety of accessible community
cinemas during the Autumnlwinter months, We also supported the intergenerational
events at Port Seton Centre
The Management Committee held a successful Christmas fair at Port Seton Centre.
In December 2024 the Management Committee were able to add the Sandcastle
room and the Sportshall area to the areas of Port Seton Centre they lease.
The Management Committee continued to support community projects and events
by giving donations, awarding grants, purchasing resources or providing volunteers
as well as developing a sensory room for use by the community at Port Seton
Centre.
Youth work was supported via our small grants scheme. The Management
Committee also continued to support youth work by working with the other
management committees in the Preston Seton Gosford Area to set up a constituted
youth organisation called PSG Youth which aims to fund youth work in the
community.
The community pantry within Port Seton Centre was also supported by the
Management Committee including the Management Committee being the point of
contact for emergency food provisions for the Community of Cockenzie and Port
Setofj during the Christmas and New Year Period, while Port Seton Centre was
closed.
The stability of the new Centre Head led to improved relations and systems of work
with the staff and ELC.
The introduction of a new EPOS till system has made an improvement to the timing
of receipt of till income and also being able to monitor the means of income.

Committee.

Over the course of the year there continued to be challenges for the Management
Committee
With East Lothian Council continuing the recruitment freeze and reducing staff ing
hours the reduction in centre opening hours continued. The opening hours did
stabilise later in 2024 with the centre closing early 2 evenings a week. This
continued to have an impact on the Management Committee due to limitations on
their ability to support the community to the extent they would have liked.
es
We did not put up a Christmas Tree outside Port Seton Centre over the festive
period for 2024 due to the limitations with the tree only being lit up during the
opening hours of Port Seton Centre when the staff r8membered to switch it on. The
cost of providing a Christmas Tree couldn't be justified against the limited time the
lights would be switched on especially as the tree would be off over Christmas.
The limitation of only one trusted keyholder being allowed in Port Seton Centre at
any one time by East Lothian Council during planned centre closing times continued
to be restrictive and posed a challenge as some groups were unable to run or hold
meetings.
li
The Management Committee recognises the continued hard work being carried out
by all staff within the centre especially given the challenges faced by the staff team,
The management Committee would like to thank all the staff for their continued
dedication and hard work. The support and resilience carried out by the staff team
has shown how diverse the team can be and how valued a service they provide
within the community.
The Management Committee would like to thank the Connected Communities team
for their help and support.
The Management Committee would also like to thank PSG Area Partnership and
VCEL for their support with funding to help us support the community of Cockenzie
and Port Seton.

management and health and safety policies. The Managem8nt Committee is
registered with the Information Commissioners Office as a controller of data under
the General Data Protectinn Regulations. The introduction of an EPOS Tlll systern
has increased transparency and should improve the cornplexity of the accounts.
