Public benefits
Public Benefit The direct benefit of purpose (a) is the provision of a safe environment for young people aged 4-18 to meet and participate in a variety of activities. This can be demonstrated by the fact that the Club was established in 1974 and attracts members from outside of the greater Gillygooley area. The Club is recognised by the Education
and Library Board which supports the Club with grant aid funding. There is no harm from providing this facility. A private benefit to trustees and leaders may arise from training in necessary skills such as First Aid, Child Protection and leadership training which are transferrable to other settings. These benefits are incidental and necessary to ensure that the benefit is provided to our members. The direct benefit of purpose (b) is encouraging young people to be confident and respectful towards others and instilling a desire for success. This can be demonstrated through feedback from other organisations that come in contact with our Club. For example our members are regularly commended on their good behaviour as a group towards others and also in their successful participation in Young Enterprise. These benefits do not pose and harm. The Club’s intended beneficiaries are its members and also the wider community who come into contact with the members. There is no private benefit from this purpose. The direct benefit of purpose (c) is helping young people to be respectful of all people regardless of the differences that may exist e.g. age, religion, culture etc. These benefits can be demonstrated by Club participation in cross-community and cross-border projects and assisting with the Senior Christmas Party. These benefits do not pose any harm. The Club’s beneficiaries are its members and also the wider community who come in contact with the members. There is no private benefit from this purpose.
