Public benefits
The Public Benefit flowing from our purposes is that the organisation provides and manages facilities for use by the inhabitants of Brocagh and surrounding areas and local charitable and community organisations who make use of the facilities for their own purposes. Examples of this would be the local GAA club who provide fitness training, health
awareness and physical exercise for their members. The local bowling club offers recreational activities to our Senior Citizens thus assisting them to come together and avoid being socially excluded and get the health benefits from social interaction and communication. Further benefits derived from the activities of the historical group who provide talks, education courses and classes enabling local people to increase their knowledge skills and access to educational opportunities. The Mother & Toddler group provides young parents with a space where they can meet, interact themselves and allow their babies to begin the important social skill of meeting, playing and learning from each other. There are other groups such as the cultural tradition group, a local youth club, a local farmers group all of whom can access our facilities and provide local people with opportunities for a variety of activities which provides community cohesion contributes to good mental health, encourages physical health awareness and provides them access to general educational opportunities. The real benefit is that these groups can access these facilities for free but the overall benefits can be measured by the number of organisations using the centre and the number of people attending each of the activities. There is no harm flowing from any of these activities.
