facilitated by us, but have welcomed guesls from other organisations such as Seetec (an organlsatlon
who supports people into employment and through the barriers that may be in their way to
employment) in order to give a fresh perspective, ideas and lop tips on people being able to budget
better and take care of their rnoney. Members have found this Incredibly helpful. and have been
putting into practice what they are leaming.
Gardening ProJ•ct
We have used a plot at the rear of our Registered Office, namely the Youth House to run our
gardening projed. Members have enjoyed weparlng the land, sowing, planting and harvesting fruit
and vegetables. Sorne have also used their carpentry skills to construct raised beds and planters,
which have then been offered to the public. for which we received small donations. We have
continued to work in partnership with Berrington Court, a local Extra Care residenb.al community
where we visit weekty to work on their garden. Members also support each Oth￿ to help maintain
their private gardens. In addition to thls we have started to maintain a large garden in StourporL This

Our reseple situation has continued to remain stable and we have kept within our budget for the year.
Investment policy
Trustees have reviewed our reserves and considered using interest bearing accounts having
undertaken their own research. In light of the low rates of interest on offer we have decided it isn
worth the trouble of opening a savings account at the moment. We will contlnue to keep this under
review periodically and In the coming financial y8ar will investigate the exposure of the charity in the
event that the bank they utilise was to fail.
