Public benefits
Purpose 1 - to enhance the development and education of young children by encouraging parents/guardians to understand and provide for the needs of their children. The direct benefits which flow from this purpose include an enhanced learning capacity which addresses social, emotional, physical & educational needs of the child. These benefits can
be demonstrated by feedback from parents/guardians, external assessments, educational assessments & statistics. Purpose 2 – to offer appropriate play facilities, with the right of parents/carers to take responsibility for and to become involved in the activities of the Company, ensuring that the Company offers opportunities for all children, regardless of religion, culture, race or means. The direct benefits which flow from this purpose include bringing parents together on the committee and provide training to enhance the skills of parents to provide appropriate play and support for their children. These benefits can be demonstrated by feedback from parents. Purpose 3 – to encourage the study of the needs of such children and their families and promote public interest and recognition of the needs of such children and their families in the local area. The direct benefits which flow from this purpose include representation from the Playgroup being involved in the local Community Association to raise awareness of and recognition for the needs of children and their families in the local area. These benefits can be demonstrated by the Community Association hosting fun days, summer scheme and youth club. The beneficiaries are children and their families living in the local Ardstraw village and surrounding area. There is no harm flowing from this purpose. The only private benefit flowing from the purposes is from time to time the management committee which is made up of volunteers, which may on some occasions get expenses paid. Ie travel to training, otherwise there is no private benefit flowing from the purposes and this is incidental and necessary to enhance the purposes of the Group.
