APPENDIX 1 Achievements and perfomiance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the financial period

DCSC continue to operate our Community Larder & Warm Space initiative from within the local community centre. The pandemic had seen DCSC adapt to some of the issues we could see within our community, including “food with dignity” and “social inclusion” issues, both of which were amplified by the pandemic. We continue to work with North Ayrshire Council and local Food retailers to help support the stock demand requirements. We currently operate the Community Larder on a Wednesday evening, and a Saturday morning, where the feedback from those attending is very positive, where they see it as not only an opportunity to source much needed food, but also an opportunity to meet people.

We continue to utilise our Sports Pavilion to both operate and facilitate a number of events, including, Party in the Park, Parklives ( free activities & food, once a week ), Skirt the Skeith ( Dalry running event ), Summer Games ( free activities & food ), Kids Pre-School Sport Day, Summer Camp, Orienteering, Bicycle Repair Workshop ( Dr Bike ). We are still progressing with the asset transfer of the premises from North Ayrshire Council, however due to some historic legal issues with the Public Park in relation to Title Deeds, this is now looking to be a Long Term Lease agreement instead - we currently have a temporary occupation licence for the premises.

The Menshed that we originally launched, and operates from the Sports Pavilion continues to grow and expand in both membership numbers and activities. They continue to support in particular, with the mental health and wellbeing of men, and offering a range of activities included, fly tying, bicycle repair, painting, bird box building, model aeroplane building, woodwork and a Friday bicycle ride. The group also supports other community groups with additional volunteering, including, helping at our Community Larder.

This period has also seen us continue to support the “She shed” from our sports pavilion, which runs on a Tuesday with around a core membership of 18 now, and a further 10 or so, dropping in adhoc. The She shed is similar to the Menshed, in supporting the mental health and wellbeing of women, where it offers a range of activities, from a cup of tea and a chat, to arts & craft activities amongst others.

This period has also seen us supporting local football teams, which is something we did pre-pandemic, and look to get more involved in again, not only with football, but other sports and leisure activities within the community.

We also worked in partnership with Dalry Action Group and the Dalry Community Development Hub, in launching a new initiative called Party in the Park, which will be an annual event for the town and is similar to a Gala Day, where we took the lead on both fund raising and overseeing the main organisational requirements. Thie was a great success and we look forward to continuing this, next year. We also set up a Fan Zone in the local community centre for the European Football Finals, where we were able to show the Scotland Games on the big screen and offer free hotdogs and drinks to all those that attended – admission was also free. Due to the success of this we are now looking to introduce Cinema Nights in the coming year for both kids and adults.

Financial review Brief statement of the charity's policy on reserves Reserves Policy Introduction The Trustees of Dalry c(￿MUn[￿ Sports Club IDCSCI are keenly aware of the need to Se￿re c￿r viability beyond the immediate fvture. In order to k able to maintain our assets and to provide reliable services to the communlty over the longer lern. DCSC must be able to absorb setbad(s and to take advantage of change and opportunlty. We provide for this by rtling aside some ofthe current ir￿e as a reserve against future uncertainb'es. Reserves Policy The Trustees Current￿ working towards a reserves policy which requires that reserves are built and maintained at a level which ensure5 that six r￿nthS of the organi&ition's rJJrrent acttvity could continue during period of unforeseen difficulty.

The outcome of this would be that the groups will have an opportunty to inuease their rnembership whilst providing an increase in family, based activities that are aeeessible to all in the eommunty.

We continue to w(k with the various Local Partners, including, DSM Prcmjucts. North Ayrshire Council Planning to progress this and are confident that we are now moving forward. We continue to work wrth North Ayrshire Counol on our solar light FKoject, wthin Dalry Public park. where we previously received the required f￿)dIng, which will enable the communty to better aeeess the pat1( over the winter I dart( nights. and also allow better acc*ss to our sporis pavilw)n, allowing us to cary out more activities over this period as well. Continue to engage with our partner5 in the cornmunty- KA Leisure, Active Schools, Dalry Primary School, Dalry Communty Hub, D￿ry Action Group, Dalry Communty Council, St Palladius Primary School and Gamock Communtty Campus. Our vision, see's us continuing to I￿k at whyer OppC￿b￿1tses for socaal indusion within the town and to maximise opportunf(ies to build a strc￿ger cc4nmunty through sport and leisure. We will continue to build on the relationships we have with existing partners. and look for 0ppcw￿n1tses to engage wf(h new c￿e$. We consider the first step in resolving most of the major issues is to build a stronger communtty which consider themselves a part of, and are reluctant to leave. DCSC will therefore '. Look to engage wth North AyTshire Coun￿1 and in particular. with the Head of Services ( connected communities - ensure we align with NAC pnorrties, and WC￿ together. to address the issues that were highlighted in Ayrshire 21 Dalry Action Plan- speafically around soaal inclusion cPP￿Lunthes and areas of potential fijnding.
