COMMUNITY INTEREST ANNUAL REPORT

MAKING A DIFFERENCE ADVENTURES CIC

Company Number: 14415453 (England and Wales)

Year Ending: 31 October 2024

Company activities and impact

The company has continued to try to develop in the last year. The funds we had hoped to obtain from a large charity have not appeared. We received a donation of several thousand pounds from an individual who ran a Sponsored event. Other funds were received as a directors loan from one of the directors. The long term expectation of that director is that he will “write off” the loan at some point in the future. The company continues to seek external funding. During the year we established appropriate insurance for our activities once more, and ran a second adventure weekend successfully in July 2024, based again at the Viney Hill adventure centre. We undertook a detailed, post event analysis and received plaudits from individuals and organisations.

Consultation with stakeholders

The company’s stakeholders are the team of instructors and, most importantly, those who attend our adventures. Parkinson's UK sent an observer to our adventure and was complementary of our efforts. The instructors all conducted a detailed post-event analysis, and we surveyed every attendee to find out what they gained, what could improve, and where we did well (and where we could do better).

Directors' remuneration

Two of the Directors received fees for a total of two days each at a discounted rate. Some minor expenses were also incurred by the Directors, which were reimbursed. All other aspects of planning and delivery were provided pro bono. There were no other transactions or arrangements in connection with the remuneration of directors, or compensation for directors' loss of office, that require disclosure.

Transfer of assets

No transfer of assets other than for full consideration
