To achieve these objects, the main actNlty is continuing to implement the findings of a 2010 community survey I'ListeninB Communities, Report) conducted in the Mortimer. Burghfield. Sulhamstead. Padworth and Mortimer West End communitie5. In planning our ongolng activities the Trustees ha¥e consldered the Charlty Commlssion's guldance on public benefrt, including the guidance in 'Public Benefit- Runnin8 a Charity IPB21'.

The Community Café (Café Bl In Burghfield Common, now in its 9th year. continues to be well used and valued by local people on Monday and Wednesday openings, though the Covid-19 restrictions made it very intermittent in its opening. With the $trIctl0n5 on indoor seatin& we were very grateful to Ceive support from Burghfield Parish Council to be able to open a takeaway service at the Pavilion in the Park when weather and Covid-19 StrIctl0nS allowed.

School Pastors initiative (Burghfleld and Area School Pastors). launched in The Willink School, Burghfield Common. in May 2013 in partnership with the Ascension Trust, continues to supwrt the School community and is highly valued bythe School. In 2020 due to School Closures and Covid-19 restrlttions when the school was open we unfortunately were unable to provide any patrob in school. • The befriending scheme (Tim Friends) started in May 2013, is also run by a part time coordinator. During 2020 it has continued to provide valuable support to vulnerable and isolated adults. Ourvolunteer befrienders have Shown great resilience in getting to grips wlth the latest government guidance on Covid, and have come up with novel ways to stay connected to their friend5. Our coordinator has developed Increased contact and co-operatlon with local health care providers and other interested parties and potential partners, and her experience has been recognlsed from our partner, Linking Live5 UK, with the invitation to join theKr leadership group which looks at issues facing Linking Llves projects acr05S the UK. The value of the scheme ha5 been recognised by local funders with Brants to support and extend our activities into adjacent parishes which, though not easy due to the dispersed housin& has identified more clients and volunteers. • Whilst many of the local events had been cancelled. ourvolunteers from across all of our sel¢eS have continued to serve our local community, by collecting shopping or prescriptions arid simply keeping an eye out for those they Ilve dose to.
