CCA CIO Objectives

The objects of the CCA are encapsulated in the stated objectives of the CIO as registered with the Charity Commission as follows:

“To further or benefit the residents of the Parish of Capel and the neighbourhood without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other opinions by associating together the said residents and their voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation leisure time occupation with the objective of improving the conditions of life for the residents.

To enhance the development and education of children under statutory school age by encouraging parents to understand and provide for the needs of their children through community groups.

In furtherance to these objects but not otherwise, the trustees shall have the power: to establish or secure a village hall and to maintain or manage or co-operate with any statutory authority in the maintenance and management of such a centre for activities promoted by the charity in the furtherance of the above objectives.

Nothing in this constitution shall authorise an application of the property of the CIO for the purposes which are not charitable.”

Achieved by:
  1. Securing the village hall to facilitate the above objectives and activities.
  2. To maintain, manage or co-operate with any statutory authority.
  3. Promote activities in the furtherance of the above objectives.
  4. Only use the hall for purposes which serve these objectives.

Into the future:

Like everyone in recent years world events have impacted the work of the CCA, although we are able to continue our work, we do need help in the form of human and funding resources to secure our future and continue to provide critical facilities for our users and the community at large.

To meet this aspiration, we are now actively reviewing immediate needs and actions to sustain the existing Village Hall and its operations whilst considering options and opportunities to upgrade or renew our facilities within its present environment. This can only be achieved with the ongoing support of our Community, Members, Volunteers, Users other Institutions and Local Authorities along with essential funding.

As these plans are developed, we will consult and share them with you, meanwhile why not join our team as Member, Volunteer or Trustee and be an integral part of delivering our future!
