## Principle activities:
The charity’s principal activity is that of providing recreational dinghy sailing for people with disabilities in a safe and organised environment.
All equipment and liabilities are insured with an RYA approved company.
## **Report for the year ended 28th February 2022**
Since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic in March 2020, TLS has operated in accordance with Government guidelines. This had seriously restricted sailing activities and fundraising. Volunteer training took place during the latter part of the year to ensure we had sufficient levels of First Aid and Powerboat qualifications for safe sailing as restrictions were lifted in spring 2022.
The Scouts made a minimal charge for use of the facility and storage for the year. In February 2022 the Trustees discussed a new charging agreement with the Scouts for use of the facilities, boat storage and pontoon insurance. The agreement is in the process of being drawn up prior to signature by both parties. The agreement will be reviewed annually in February.
Ashlett Sailing Club provided winter storage for the dinghies within their locked compound at no charge and the Trustees are grateful for this support.
We are grateful for supporters who made collections on our behalf using social media.
## **Outstanding commitments for 2022/2023 (Funds held in Bank account)**
The Trustees will review outstanding projects at the start of the financial year and set out a revised plan of action.
Testwood Lakes Sailability continues to work in close cooperation with the Scouts and will contribute to projects when we are able.
