Public benefits
The direct benefits which flow from this purpose include the preparation of each child for Nursery / Primary Education through mastering the basic skills of expression, communication, problem solving and the ability to relate to other children and adults. These benefits are evidenced through feedback provided to the parents by the Leader for each
child throughout the year. An annual inspection is carried out by the Social Services Trust which requests feedback from parents and this forms part of the report. There is no harm flowing from the purpose. The Charity’s beneficiaries are 3-5 year old pre-school children in the local area, without regard to religious affiliation or other beliefs of the families concerned. A private benefit to Trustees may arise occasionally through attendance at training for management committees, including finance. Through this training Trustees may gain skills and experience which are transferable to other settings. These benefits are incidental and necessary to the provision of the benefit to our beneficiaries.

The playgroup provides activities through which the children can learn through play: table top and floor toys; painting, art & craft; water play; play dough; physical play (e.g. climbing, trikes); house corner (role play); books and storytelling; music, song and rhymes. These activities improve each child's abilities over the course of the year -
hand/eye co-ordination, talking, listening, concentration, muscle development, agility and strength. The management committee holds several fund-raising activities throughout the year to support the finances required to keep the place running smoothly and the upkeep/ replacement of equipment.
