| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | Return of our fireworks event which was sold out, and our first in-person Christmas Fayre since 2019 which was opened by the local Mayor and open to the wider community. Securring a grant from the local Parish Council as part of the Build Back Better Scheme to enable us to enhance our Forest School area for the whole school community (funds secured in August 2023 but spent in February 2024). The return of large scale in-person events has seen a step change in funds raised this year, to over £23,000. This has enabled us to invest over £22,000 back into the school community with things like funding new interactive white boards and funding a new climbing frame for KS1 children as the old one was deemed unsafe. Both of which will enhance the children's educational environments while at school |
