02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
The principal activity of the charity during the year, as recorded in our constitution, are to promote the care and education of children in need of care, in an environment where they feel both safe and valued and to promote this during and out of school hours and to promote the provisions of facilities for the recreation and other leisure time of suchchildren ensuring their social welfare is improving their conditions of life. The day care centre continues to operate from premises owned by Leuchars Station, free of charge. There are agreements in place that the charity have to maintain the premises at their cost. In the current financial year, we maintained our good rating as a trusted early years service provider. The number of children reduced from previous years which is reflected in the grant money received from Fife Council.
