Public benefits

Direct benefits to our beneficiaries are that they are being cared for in a safe and satisfying environment. They are learning life skills through play, tidying, hygiene practices and healthy eating. Parents can also be considered our beneficiaries as they are receiving high quality childcare at an affordable price. This can be evidenced by the

security in our building, feedback from parents and the children are excited to come to afterschool. Our prices have not increased in at least six years and we are lower than our competitors. We have a waiting list for parents wanting their children to attend. Children request certain healthy snacks, look forward to helping out and hygiene practices are of a high standard without having to constantly remind the children. We do not anticipate any harm leading from the purposes of OIPS Friends Club. OIPS Friends Club beneficiaries are the children & their families from Omagh & its environs. There are no private benefits flowing from any of the purposes.
