Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

The COVID 19 lockdown dominated the year with little activity inside the building, however some of our regular hirers continued to pay, we benefitted from government grants, and we hired the hall when Covid regulations allowed. 

Also when COVID regulations allowed we carried out several significant projects comprising: 

- The boiler was replaced with a larger output model 

- The Hall was re-painted 

- One of the rear windows was replaced 

- The roof was cleaned of vegetation and guttering repaired
