Horfield Common CIC also traded as The Cafe on the Common throughout this financial reporting period. In addition to providing an ongoing, daily community cafe service at the Ardagh site, Horfield Common CIC.The Cafe, located in facilities run and managed by Ardagh Community Trust (Charity Number: 1172556) at the Ardagh, Horfield Common operated every day throughout this time, providing a service, point of connection and opportunities to reduce social isolation amongst our local community. The early part of this reporting period included restrictions on operations and trading activity, alongside restrictions on meeting in public spaces in groups, in response to the ongoing global pandemic. This continued to restrict the range of community activities it was possible to deliver (following initial restrictions being put in place in the preceding reporting period), and so the focus of activity through the initial 6 months of this period was on takeaway only trading from our community cafe.Through this reporting period, the health benefits and impact of access to public gardens and play spaces for local people of all ages was repeatedly highlighted and our focus was on co-creating opportunities with our local community to make progress on the areas of the site it was possible to improve and increase use of within the remit of the restrictions and requirements for social distancing. The importance of access to good quality, safe to access public space, and to affordable space for flexible use by the community for a wide range of activities was emphasised; access to the sports courts for use by a range of local community groups (for example Morris Dancing, Irish Dancing, Theatre, Choir, Buggy Fit) while restrictions on meeting in public spaces continued have enabled a wide range of voluntary groups to continue to operate through the pandemic. In response to consultation with site users as the impacts of the pandemic began to become more visible, the CIC implemented a new, booking system for the sports courts through the pandemic which has supported this improved positive social impact. Alongside this work, focused on social impact through reimagining uses for and of the outdoor space at the Ardagh site, the company continued to develop opportunities to use the spaces available to us at the Ardagh site to impact positively on local people - including enterprise for local artists, makers, and producers through a range of showcase events and activities. Throughout this period of time, many volunteering activities were limited as a result of the restrictions on meeting together in groups. However, we continued throughout this time to build partnerships and work with other local groups and organisations including Family Food Action, My Community Bristol, Age UK Bristol and a range of organisations serving children and young people in the local area to achieve shared aims and maximise the impact of limited resources in the local area. The company made use of the UK Government support schemes – including the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme and the Additional Restrictions Grants administered by local authorities. This supported our salary costs and ensured that all members of staff employed by the CIC were able to be retained throughout this period of significant economic uncertainty.
The company’s stakeholders include members of the charity which owns the CIC, Ardagh Community Trust. Membership is open to all who support the charity’s aims, and costs £3 for 3 years membership. Additionally, open community consultation events, and activities are regularly undertaken to ensure that all who would like to, are invited to contribute to thinking about, and planning for development of the company and it’s socially impactful activities. On Saturday 8th May 2021, an open, public event was undertaken at the Ardagh inviting contributions to the Ardagh annual site user survey, which informs the company’s development and planning. Throughout this period, there was additional and frequent consultation with site users and cafe customers specifically in response to safe management of the site for all users in the context of the ongoing global pandemic. Alongside this, the company undertook a range of consultation activities focused on use by specific age groups, including under-5s, children and families, teenagers and older people. These were led by CIC staff, volunteers and fed into planning for projects, external grant funded projects and activities and the development of the social enterprise’s work ongoing.
