Section D                      Achievements and performance 

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

**In the last year there have been a number of changes in the way the Club has been run and although individually they have been relatively minor, collectively they have made for a significant change.** 

**1. The general recovery from covid has resulted in fairly good number returning to face-to-face play although many members still prefer to play online. An average week is now 25 tables spread over 4 sessions.  Since covid some members have not returned to the Club although the total membership remains buoyant at 177.** 

**2. The collection of table money has been streamlined which has helped the administration considerably.  In addition we have switched to online banking accounts which has similarly reduced the workload involved.** 

3. **The Club, therefore, is currently in good health both financially and socially compared with other local clubs. Although more active members would be welcome, it is encouraging to see that there is a very popular Beginners Bridge group having lessons on a Thursday morning, successful teaching being one of our key objectives.**
