|Summary<br>ofthe main<br>achievements<br>ofthe charity|||Party in the Park||
|during the|year||In recent years the Committee<br>have organised<br>a large event during the||
||||summer<br>known as 'Party<br>in the Park.<br>' This was originally<br>organised<br>to||
||||celebrate the Queen's<br>Diamond<br>Jubilee<br>in 2012 but was so popular<br>and||
||||successful<br>that it was repeated<br>every year.||
||||Unfortunately,<br>in financial years 20/21 and 21/22, due to the Covid||
||||Pandemic we could not hold the event.||
||||However,<br>in this financial year 'Party<br>in the Park' was held again and over||
||||2750 people attended<br>a spectacular<br>event helping to raise funds.<br>The||
||||local community<br>including<br>several businesses<br>within the locality were||
||||involved<br>in making this event another success.||
||||The funds raised have enabled the installation<br>ofrubberised<br>safety||
||||surfacing<br>under several pieces of play equipment,<br>a new replacement||
||||see-saw, an inclusive, disabled-access<br>spinner<br>roundabout<br>and also to||
||||carry out a variety of important<br>maintenance<br>and horticultural<br>tasks at|the|
||||recreation<br>ground.||
||||Gift a Tree Scheme||
||||Some years ago, the Committee<br>established<br>the above scheme whereby||
||||members<br>ofthe local community<br>can donate a tree to either celebrate|an|
||||event or remember<br>a loved one. This service was established<br>to improve||
||||the amenity<br>and appearance<br>ofthe landscape<br>at the Recreation<br>Ground||
||||and has been an ongoing<br>activity.<br>It has proved to be very successful|and|
||||to date over 200 specimen trees have been planted<br>under the scheme.||
||||In order to monitor the development<br>ofthe landscape,<br>the 'Gift a Tree'||
||||scheme was suspended<br>in the year ended 28 February 2019.||
||||Grounds<br>Maintenance||
||||Our ongoing<br>programme<br>ofwork has continued<br>successfully<br>this year|to|
||||ensure that the site remains<br>an attractive<br>facility for local children<br>and||
||||families to enjoy.||
||||Website||
||||The Charity's<br>website provides<br>comprehensive<br>information<br>about the||
||||history ofthe recreation ground's<br>development<br>and the range ofcurrent||
||||facilities. Italso provides<br>information<br>about how the Trustees manage|the|
||||charity. The address ofthe website is www. larga.co.uk||
||||Volunteer Gardener Scheme||
||||The above scheme<br>initially<br>involved<br>volunteers<br>from the Management||
||||Committee<br>but has extended to include other members<br>ofthe local||
||||community.<br>The work undertaken<br>by volunteer<br>gardeners<br>has enabled||
||||the committee<br>to improve even further the appearance<br>ofthe recreation||
||||ground<br>and therefore the enjoyment<br>of visitors to the site. The volunteers||
||||meet regularly<br>to plan new projects that have included<br>planting||
||||thousands<br>of native wildtlowers<br>and bulbs, extending<br>the wild bird friendly||
||||hed<br>erowand<br>lantin<br>newborderswith<br>lantsandshrubsdonatedb||
