This template illustrates what the Regulator of Community Interest Companies considers to be best practice for completing a simplified community interest company report. All such reports must be delivered in accordance with section 34 of the Companies (Audit, Investigations and Community Enterprise) Act 2004 and contain the information required by Part 7 of the Community Interest Company Regulations 2005.
PART 1 – GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY’S ACTIVITIES AND IMPACT
In the space provided below, please insert a general account of the company’s activities in the financial year to which the report relates, including a description of how they have benefited the community.
We started as an organisation that provides news, information, and signposting to those on State Pensions and/or State Benefits. We are still active in this field with almost 4,500 articles online. The Association of Pension & Benefits Claimants CIC has launched a project called SAILING WELLNESS to help those suffering from mental health issues. By teaching people to learn to sail using RC (radio-controlled) sailboats, we plan to keep sufferers safely on shore while teaching them the theory and practice of sailing. The principal advantage of this is that we do not have to take risks going afloat with people such as ex. military personnel who can have panic attacks if helicopters fly overhead. Getting people sailing helps break the cycle of rumination, where people go over and over ‘what went wrong’. Our cohort, having learned basic skills, can (if they wish) transfer to larger boats, dinghies, or yachts with a good basic understanding of sailing theory and practice.
