Public benefits
The benefits flowing from the purposes of Tobertinys Community Playgroup are that parents of pre-school children from Tobermore and surrounding areas have an opportunity to be looked after in a safe and stimulating environment under the care of suitably qualified play leaders. Their children benefit from being able to attend such a facility close
to their own homes where there is no regular public transport. They benefit from the fact that they have access to both education and recreation in safe and secure facilities in an organisation managed by their own parents and local people. The community benefits by securing this facility for local children and therefore being able to offer the service at reasonable prices affordable to local parents. There is no private benefit flowing from these purposes except for the salaries of the personnel employed by the project which is necessary for the running of the project. These benefits are measured by the numbers of children coming to the facility each year. They are also measured by consultations with the children themselves who regularly evaluate their own activities. Feedback is also obtained by parents at least twice a year but most parents get a daily report on the progress of their child and so the benefits are often measured by the one to one interview with parents which incur on a regular basis. There is no harm flowing from these purposes.
