Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

The main focus of the Trustees during the year was to attempt to get the library back to some sense of normality after the Covid outbreak.

Attracting back previous users of the library and achieving in increase in footfall has proved challenging.

A number of new ideas were discussed and would be acted upon in the months to come such as monthly history talks, family history, conversational Welsh to name but a few.

The photographic Group is still a strong presence at the library.

The main source of income continues to be from grant funding.

Attracting new volunteers remains challenging.
